Baloney. Just because an historical document includes "god" or religious language does not mean it can't be taught.

Thus - this nation was formed "under God", since they invoke god specifically by putting the action "to the Supreme Judge".
Funny how when they actually got around to forming the nation in the Constitution, the Founders made a point of NOT doing so "under god." They could have easily done so, but they didn't.

When the establishment clause is followed, everyone wins. I don't know why the fundies want to do away with a good thing.
