First Florida, now South Carolina. Legislators talk about "I Believe" tags.A South Carolina House subcommittee is discussing a bill that would create a new license plate for Christians.
It would have a cross with the words "I believe" on the tag. The same tag stirred quite a controversy in Florida legislature. If such a license plate is approved, it would be the first to feature a religious symbol. Opponents say it violates separation of church and state, and makes it seem as if the state encourages a particular religion.
