Smith Condemns Court Decision on Pledge of Allegiance “Wrongheaded” decision by federal judge threatens |
||
“I strongly disagree with today’s ruling and expect that it will be overturned. “The Pledge of Allegiance reflects the belief set forth by our Founders that we were placed here with purpose by a higher power. They created a country free from religious persecution based upon their fundamental belief in God. “I recall President Reagan’s insightful words: ‘If we ever forget that we are one nation under God, then we will be a nation gone under.’ Our nation was founded upon religious freedom including a belief in God and a decision like the one made today undermines our morality as a nation. | ||
