Part two to explain the limitation, or scope of part one,

found here, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IYLY3Gg2zlo

which was,

The real origin of the pledge of allegiance to the flag. With the addition of how "in god" was inserted into it.

Let me add this 'disclaimer' of a sort. I agreed with the Jehovah witlesses in their initial court case. "Not to be forced to recite some chant every morning." I disagree with the court "finding" that it did not meet some religious requirement not to 'have another before him' and their dogma - passages intent, it clearly did.

Just stop with the nonsense of forced recitals of phony patriotism. As well as changing original intent of other peoples works to fit your warped view of the world.


A user by the name of xenotwp said in my other video,

"This info was wrong, as well as the spelling of the family's name. The court stenographer accidentally spelled the Gobitas name as Gobitis & so it stays. The Gobitas' LOST their case in the Supreme Court & J.W.'s were persecuted, churches were burnt down, the Gobitas children were taunted, a J.W. man was even castrated. The ruling was overturned 3 yrs later. "Under God" was added in the 50s because of the Commie scare." plus another paragraph of comment-cont:.

So the only "thing wrong" was the misspelled name of the Plaintiff? The wrong vowel used?


Once again, the scope of the other video was to educate those that do not know, the *ORIGIN OF* our pledge of allegiance to the flag. Which was a magazines marketing ploy.

So after the first court challenge to 'a strange thing they do', other people looked at it as a threat from some wacked out religious gnutts and took it too far with the violence. Were these 'violent people' other christians? What are the odds they all were other christians? Sounds like a perfect video for a JW sympathizer to make, what do you say xenotwp?

  • @BioturdGreasyKebab Typical of you. No facts or points to make, just more attempted insults. In the actual symptom you describe, would be a wholly projectionist point you made. I've always held the idea 'speed kills', I left that alone for you to use.
