Since when does quoting what someone said reflect the reality of the present day. Things change, idea change, people change, society changes. I the quote by Lincoln about changing or abolishing the government whan it is not good, doesn't mean that people can actually do it. What about this jerk atheist who want to have the Pledge of Allegience altered to take out "under God." One man only should never have his way. If most of the people of the country want "under God" in the pledge, it should stay there.
