Reply #4: does a lot more than protect "under god"

Here's what the bill says: `No court created by Act of Congress shall have any jurisdiction, and the Supreme Court shall have no appellate jurisdiction, to hear or decide any question pertaining to the interpretation of, or the validity under the Constitution of, the Pledge of Allegiance, as defined in section 4 of title 4, or its recitation.'.

In other words, not only can you not challenge the wording of the pledge (even if Congress decides to change it to refer, for example, not just to God, but to Jesus), but you can't bring cases that raise a question concerning the recitation of the pledge, which means if a school principle or teacher wants to mandate the recitation of the pledge, or give detention to a student who refuses to stand for the pledge, etc., there's nothing that can be done. Its completely outrageous.
