NATIONS KEEPS GOD - SAYS COURT

The Supreme Court says the atheist father has no legal standing to challenge the Pledge of Allegiance's phrase "one nation under God." He doesn't have legal custody. The girl's mother had no problem with the pledge invoking the almighty.

O'Connor, Rehnquist and Thomas said further that "Under God" wasn't unconstitutional. Scalia probably would have joined them but sat out this case.

I don't quite know what offends atheists about using God in our common language. They would be best in humoring the rest of us. Nothing makes Americans angrier than frivolous lawsuits. Don’t they know that belief in God is the only thing keeping half the country from kicking their ass?
