It's appropriate that we have a national anthem that was written by a lawyer who was held captive watching his country defend itself and that the body of the first part ends with a question mark.
There should be no fantasy big daddy god blatherings in an anthem that's to represent us all. Anyone who doesn't inherently understand this doesn't understand what this country is all about.
This is symbolism writ big, and that's fine for me.
