I hate to say it, but I also said it without "under God", and we gave the
military salute (also in Girl Scouts), and no information on "opt outs". My
homeroom teacher in the 8th grade was our Latin teacher, so as an indication of
how rote the pledge truly is, I know it much better as "Fidem meam obligo vexilo
civitae americae foerdaratarum (or something like that) et rei publicae pro
qua stat uni nationi non dividendi cum libertate justitiaque omnibus." Betsy
