Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Even worse, some versions of the pledge make you swear "under god" which is fucked up. Christian Nationalists are what is destroying america.
~~Good~~ How can there be different versions of the pledge? Is it that each state technically has their own pledge?
Under god is part of the pledge from my understanding. Beyond that, other states do have their own pledges.
The "under god" portion was added in the 50s or 60s, same with adding "in god we trust" to all currency
We added "under God" to the pledge in the 50s or 60s. At the same time we put "In God We Trust," on the dollar. We were differentiating against the USSR which was an atheist state.
If you were expecting me to play google and give you a rundown on pledge of allegiance modern history, I'm afraid you've hit a dead end.
