→Some of this is ridiculous.: new section
I think that particular phrase should be removed from the list of secularized language. In fact, it should be listed as an example of religious language '''enhancing''' secular language. The original expression did not include "under God" but was added to expressly reflect this nation's belief in God as opposed to atheistic communism. I think the part about atheists trying to undo it should stay. Thoughts? [[User:Tordenvaer|Tordenvaer]] 14:32, 9 February 2012 (EDT)

== Some of this is ridiculous. ==
For example, the "flood waters/flooding/flood".
How is that secular language.
And quite honestly, have you ever thought that some of these were just because they were mouthfuls?
Language evolves over time. Please, guys, you're making a mountain out of a molehill-- just like the liberal media.
