A pagan goddess is not an appropriate symbol for the nation founded on the laws of “Nature’s God.”

Sorry, but since the start of the Republic coinage has reflected these Greco-Roman-type women as symbols of liberty (with a capital L). We also have one atop the Capitol, etc.

It’s been going on a long time and is nothing but a simple symbol. Take it up with the Founders, who admired the good things about GR democracies and republics.
