> our NATIONAL MOTTO

E Pluribus Unum. "In God We Trust" is 1950's PC pap.

[hsalaw]

Oops. You're right: In God We Trust was to distinguish us from the godless commies.

[RobbyS]

"In God We Trust" is on the coin. It ought not to be treated a matter of opinion by the principal. Because she does, she is obviously a fool who if she errs in small matters will err in larger ones.

[Pyro7480]

Uh, "In God We Trust" has appeared on U.S. coins since 1938.

[Reeses]

"In God We Trust" started in 1864. Here's an interesting history page on it: www.treasury.gov

[Freedom4US]

It goes back a lot farther than that. 1862 or thereabouts.
It was first put on paper currency in the 1950's though. For a different angle, Teddy Roosevelt had the motto removed for a brief period in the 00's. Felt that it was blasphemous to have such a motto on money itself, as such money could be used for sinful activities, e.g. prostitution.

That comment is consistent with your other bigoted, hateful, anti-Christian posts on FR. It’s unfortunate that you are allowed a voice on a conservative forum. As an anti-Christian, you might wish to consider joining your friends at DU.

"In God We Trust" is 1950's PC pap.

PC = "prevention of communism"

and speaking of PC, the PC version of the national motto would be:

ex unus , plures

and the national symbol, a prism ("all the diversity of the rainbow")

Cheers!

What does a motto on currency have to do with your tagline? ( That's a rhetorical question. It has absolutely nothing to do with it. )

So, be honest for once. Do you agree with the actions taken by the school? A simple yes or no will do.

we could use a lot less Pluribus and a lot more Unum
