assimilation is the idea that this country is a melting pot, where all people come together and kind of melt into one giant glob of unanimity.

acculturation is the idea that this country is a salad bowl, where people come from all over the world and maintain their respective heritages, and they can be easily set apart.

also, does "under god" really establish a religion? i believe it does. this is where i'm coming from: http://oeyweb.com/timoey/articles/2002/pledge.htm

input greatly encourage/welcomed! thanks for watching! :)

  • Take me with you!!!!! Also, it should be omitted since, like you said not everyone believes in a god.
