So tell me, why should the Pledge of Allegiance not mention a generic "God"?
Because not everyone has a god. A generic god would apply universally to anyone who is a theist, the problem is: Not everyone is a theist.

Not everyone has a superhero, Bingo. Taking time from public, govenrment schools to speak as if everyone has some sort of superhero shouldn't be allowed.
