The Baptist Minister Francis Bellamy wrote the Pledge of Allegiance in 1892.
The Pledge of Allegiance was written in 1892. The original version did not contain the phrase 'under God,' which was added in 1954.
A man named Francis Bellamy actually wrote the Pledge in 1892, as an expression of sworn loyalty to the U.S. But some considered Bellamy a socialist, so over the next 50 years, people tried changing and adding parts to the Pledge. By 1953, Dwight D. Eisenhower, who was recently baptized a Presbyterian, felt a certain change was needed. With the Cold War gaining strength, and the pressure of politics, this became a fight against communism, and "under God" was added to the Pledge of Allegiance.
