Here's the introduction of an associated press story: Justices Take Case on Pledge of Allegiance's 'God' Reference By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Published: October 14, 2003 WASHINGTON -- The Supreme Court said Tuesday it will decide whether the Pledge of Allegiance recited by generations of American schoolchildren is an unconstitutional blending of church and state. The case sets up an emotional showdown over God in the public schools and in public life. It will settle whether the phrase "one nation under God" will remain a part of the patriotic oath as it is recited in most classrooms. . . . . .
