Fascinating how myths and beliefs get started and then passed down generation to generation and are accepted as truth. Made me immediately think of religion. Also made me think of gossip and how each person that passes it along adds a little to it.

So you're saying jimmaboy is a troll
It comes as no surprise to me that the pledge of allegiance is a relatively recent creation. And it is no surprise that politicians would have seized an opportunity, as in the 1988 presidential election, to make a political issue out of it, where certain right wing nuts attacked Michael Dukakis for actually respecting the constitution in his veto of a proposed state law requiring the pledge to be recited as a matter of law.

The Pledge wouldn't sound any better if it was true.

Non sequiter. A pledge to anything cannot be true or false. They may be KEPT or NOT kept, but the way you phrased it, your sentence has no meaning.
