We cannot exist without social order.
The government is the PEAK OF SOCIAL ORDER.
The Bible in many places COMMANDS us to pray for government.

What part of what I said do you not fully understand?

Difficult to understand how one might profess total obedience to Christ, yet deny his tenets?
Christ over and over tells to us OBEY those over us, to pray for government.
The "government and society" have decided there are certain social rituals that show allegiance.
I have a friend that is atheist, that does not stop him from standing during the pledge. He lives here, he is a part of the social order that appreciates our society.

‘Get that son of a bitch off the field!’ Trump shocks with blunt advice to spineless NFL team owners

‘Get that son of a b*tch off the field!’ Trump shocks with blunt advice to spineless NFL team owners

“Wouldn’t you love to see one of these NFL owners — when somebody disrespects our flag — to say, ‘Get that son of a b-tch off the field right now! He’s fired,’ ” Trump said. “Some owner is going to do that.”

Trump said NFL players who disrespect the flag are “ruining the game.”

And he’s right: NFL ratings have tanked, coinciding with the protests led by unemployed quarterback Colin Kaepernick, who refuses to stand during the national anthem. Other NFL players have since joined in the protest.

The anti-American demonstrations have had dire consequences on both the National Football League and the networks that carry NFL games. Attendance at this week’s game featuring Kaepernick’s old team, the San Francisco 49ers, showed an almost-empty stadium.

Many fans have started boycotting the NFL in response to players dissing the Star-Spangled Banner.

NASCAR Owners: We Won’t Tolerate Anti-Cop National Anthem Protesters

The Hill reported:

Several NASCAR team owners said Sunday they would not condone racers protesting during the national anthem, amid protests by sports players at football and baseball games.

There were no protests reported during “The Star-Spangled Banner” at the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series in New Hampshire, according to The Associated Press.

Former NASCAR champion Richard Petty told the AP that any member of his team would be fired if they chose to protest the national anthem. Petty now owns Richard Petty Motorsports.

You are very eloquent, Doug.
Someone else, somewhere else was figuratively trying to make me bow down and pledge because it's a disrespect to our fighting dead (of which I have much family in that group) not to.
Here was my response:
"The last USA Inc Imperial conscript was drafted in 1973. It's been mercs ever since fighting these ridiculous wars for Israel and global hegemony."
No response yet.

I don't particularly care for NASCAR myself, especially since there was a race track near Lebanon when I lived there. The roaring cars kept me awake in the evening when I was running relay for IWX from Springfield to Kingman, AZ. It was midnight leave every week and it was hard to stay awake, but I did it.
I rolled my co-driver out of the bunk in Oklahoma one night because this little box truck had dim tail lights. By the time I realized I could not pass because of traffic, I had to hit the brakes and he rolled out of the bunk. He told me it had happened before. :-O
BTW, I think Richard his the right to tell his employees what type of behavior is not acceptable at the races. ;)
