Personally I consider myself to be a citizen of The New Jerusalem. I will not say "The Pledge of Alligence" because I think it is a prayer, and I literally don't want to be caught dead praying to that god.
That's an interesting perspective on the pledge. The "indivisible" and "liberty and justice for all" parts, I believe, aren't the best thing to say today. On whose authority can we say "indivisible"? Just because the Union won the Civil War does not make this country indivisible. Plus, not all divisions result in the literal split of a country.
The "liberty and justice for all" part is not entirely true either. Where is there liberty and justice for the unborm, for example?
Having gone to a Christian highschool, we said three pledges at the start of each day. We pledged to the American flag, the Christian flag, and to the Bible. It just now struck me as odd as to why we did the American flag pledge first. Here are the words to the second two pledges:
Christian Flag
I pledge allegiance to the Christian flag
And to the Savior for whose kingdom it stands
One brotherhood, uniting all Christians in service and love
Bible Pledge
I pledge allegiance to the Bible, God's Holy Word
A lamp unto my feet, a light unto my path
Its words I will hold in my heart
So that I might not sin against God
