The G-Word
The American atheist who wants to bar kids from saying the Pledge of Allegiance because it includes the phrase "under God" tells United Press International that he has only just begun his efforts to remove the G-word from public life.
Michael Newdow (search), an emergency room physician and lawyer, has already sued over the pledge, references to Jesus in presidential inaugural ceremonies and the use of chaplains in the U.S. House and Senate.
Future targets, Newdow promises, include the national motto "In God We Trust," its inscription on money and singing songs such as "God Bless America" at any event on government property or at government-sponsored events.
