Wherein I point out that the national motto is "E Pluribus Unum."
> posts 21 and 22 correcting you
They did not "correct" me. Those posts showed that, yes, the "In God We Trust" line showed up occaisionally on money... but it was *not* our national motto until the 1950's.
> See your post 66 this thread, where you change the back of the dollar to read "In ODIN We Trust" with the font sizes and contents in such an arrangement that you completely live up to the accusation in post 57.
Ummm... are you aware that the dollar shown in post 66 is simply a modification of the one shown in post 57?
> you apparently consider yourself a Master Baiter.
Wow. That's truly inspired rhetoric.
...and then call it 1950's PC claptrap.
Posts 21 and 22 show that you were completely wrong about the origin of "In God We Trust" on US Currency. Which, if you recall the article about the nickel and the yearbook, was the point of the thread.
Let's go through the "troll checklist" on this:
1. Posting assertions directly contradictory to the purposes and spirit of Free Republic. (+) Check.
2. Attempted thread hijacking. Check.
3. Selective misquotation of your own posts, where the original information is trivially available to refute you. Check.
4. Ignoring direct yes-or-no questions from others about your opinions (see post 88 this thread). Check.
5. For the win...it is neither a crevo thread nor an immigration thread. Check.
Yup. Troll.
Ummm... are you aware that the dollar shown in post 66 is simply a modification of the one shown in post 57?
Yes, that's why I pointed it out. Post 57 showed the word "GOD" in place of the word "One" in a genuine one-dollar bill, and rearrange the words "In" and "We Trust" to be above and below it. So that the GOD assumes center stage on the currency. If you were really trying to make the point about the DID (deity identification)TM on the one dollar bill, you'd have photoshopped the orignal dollar bill and its small font "In God We Trust". Since you chose the image of the caricature of the Atheist's-View Dollar, my comment stands. As the late WW II Army Cartoonist Bill Mauldin said, "I build a shoe. If someone else wants to put it on and loudly announce that it fits, that's their business."
Wow. That's truly inspired rhetoric.
It beats the hell out of yours. And it was humorous. See post 87.
Cheers! (+) See here for a statement by Jim Robinson. Note especially the parts about "pro-God", "God-given", and "traditional way of life". Belief in God and public proclamation of belief in God, even by major political figures in their official capacity, are traditional.
