As a Christian I can easily pledge allegiance to the flag without seeing it or our country as a god. I fully recognize that my first allegiance is to the living God, but I can give my allegiance to my country in a secondary sense.

I believe you are making a legalistic ruling and making up your own definition of idolatry.

Isn't there a verse about giving unto Ceasar that which is do him? I think the flag is do a little allegiance. We will give unto God that which is do him, our true worship.
