Omitting the section of the Pledge that affirms these beliefs strips the message of its meaning. More than any political connotation, this is why the Pledge of Allegiance is more than incomplete without the words 'under God' and 'indivisible.' It is also empty. ↗

Societies are noisy affairs, drowning out the sound of ourselves and our connection. ↗
