What's the point of the question? One nation under God, makes no mention of who's God. It seems to be a referrence to the natural good in all people.
I should not be barred from doing any job or serving any master because of my beliefs. The thought that religion and politics are tied together because of words in the pledge, or for that matter, the words of the founders, assumes one cannot leave his personal opinions at hame and do the job he is sent to do.
We all go to work and few if any impose our personal will on others. We do the best jod we can and then go home.
A representative government works (or should) the same way.
