Should the motto "In God We Trust" be removed from U.S. currency?
Yes. It's a violation of the principle of separation of church and state.
No. The motto has historical and patriotic significance and does nothing to establish a state religion.

Newdow, again. I am starting to wish someone would mug him, so he'd turn conservative.

Well it is a lie. This government doesn’t trust in God any more than I trust my kids in the care of pedophiles.

Obviously it must be replaced by “In Obama We Trust.”

“´In God We Trust.´ It is the choicest compliment that has ever been paid us, and the most gratifying to our feelings. It is simple, direct, gracefully phrased; it always sounds well — In God We Trust. I don´t believe it would sound any better if it were true.” - Mark Twain
To: peggybac
"In God We Trust" be removed from U.S. currency? I would just add "All Others Pay Cash."

53% against
47% for
On MSNBC? That translates to about an 85% victory for God in the real world.

Interesting the numbers do not change even after voting.
Erase “cookies” vote again and still numbers do not move.

Feh. "Separation of Church and State" isn't in the Constitution.
And it was written in a private letter of Thomas Jefferson, who wrote the Declaration of Independence...not the Constitution.
Cheers!

I have no religion and do not want one. I believe in the separation of church and state. That is just how I am. BUT, our fore fathers wrote: “In God We Trust”and that is the way it would read!
