    What Does It Really Mean to Be a Patriot?

    I was raised as a religious American who was taught not to say the pledge of allegiance in school (as I was raised to believe that -all- nations were under God and not just one) so I was particularly appreciative of this. While I no longer believe, I still support the rights of those who do. (Via)
