No, that's the loyalty oath known as the Pledge of Allegience. Small
children are forced to recite it without the slightest understanding of
what they are saying, under the presumption that that will make them
develop into good citizens.
The US has formally gone on record as not being a Christian nation,
but don't tell that to the fundamentalists. Unless they can have their
version of God plastered on everything, they cry foul.
