plagiarism

A new Pledge of Allegiance has recently been introduced in the church that I attend and I think it borders on plagiarism.

The Christian Pledge of Allegiance:

I pledge allegiance to the Christian

Flag and to the Saviour for whose Kingdom it stands. One Saviour,

crucified, risen, and coming again

with life and liberty to believe.

The American Pledge of Allegiance:

I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Repubic for which it stands.

One nation, under God, indivisable,

with liberty and justice for all.

The similarity is unmstakeable, but

is it plagiarism? Have we, Christians, inadvertently stolen a

concept from the American Pledge of Allegiance?

Thank you.

Re: plagiarism

Don't worry about a violation of rights here. The pledge has been around for over 100 years and no one has proven their authorship.
