Good for Pepsi, I'm sick and tired of America only respecting Christian beliefs.
 
Spyro does have a point though, US leadership tends not to recognise differences in Gender, Race or Religion particularly.

Actually Spyro taking the words under God out IMO would only disrespect freedom of religeon. The words "under God" do not affirm any specific deity so shouldent really offend any religeon. Now if it said under YHVH or Yeshua I could understand a problem however it only says God leaving room to personalize it for yourself. The only people it could really offend would be the atheists, and to be honest I cant see how they could really be offended all that much.
 
i've always seen it as an example of our nations Christian roots. No matter how much people want to claim otherwise, most of the founding fathrs considered themselves Christian.
 
I don't see why it matters when the original pledge never contained the words "under God". Christians get into such fits over those two words. It wouldn't have stopped me from drinking Dr. Pepper, or Coke...but Pepsi?...I don't drink Pepsi cuz I think it tasts bad. This wouldn't have any effect on it.

EVIL I TELL U EVIL!!!!! pepsi for me has better carbination than coke so i prefer pepsi.
 
next thing you know someone will jump in and say that Diet caffine free is the best coke/pepsi/soda/pop ( where you are from) type there is.
 
We are a strange forum. First we talk about boycotting pepsi then how it was a fake then the pledge of allegiance then what kind of pop is the best.

Anyway, I cant drink diet pop as it gave me headaches. I cant find it anymore but I think jolt was the best pop. Lots of caffine!
