Rob Sherman Advocacy Biography
- Position:
- Con to the question "Should the Words “under God” Be in the US Pledge of Allegiance?"
- Reasoning:
-
“The First Amendment prohibition against government establishing religion precludes the government from deciding what religious belief is true. “One nation under God” is indisputably a statement of religious belief. By including “under God” in the Pledge, the government is unconstitutionally using patriotism as a secular cover for proselytizing that particular religious belief.”
