So what's the big deal about saying "under God"? If your a non-believer, it shouldn't mean nothing to ya at all anyways!
The big deal is that to me, someone mentioning God is just as offensive as when someone tells a religious person that there is no god. But then again, I'm Canadian, so it doesn't really concern me, thank god...
