Should we remove "In God We Trust" from currency?

I know there are far more important things to take care which is why it isn't something I particularly care about. For the sake of argument, say we solved all of the problems out there then what would you want? Leave it or remove it?

It is just something I thought about after looking at the back of a dollar.

This will never happen. The liberals have been trying it for years. If it did happen, I think you would see a revolt.

It makes sense to have "In God We Trust" on our currency.

In God We Trust , All Others Pay Cash.  :-)

The Bible tells us we are called to a similar union in life, our lives with the life of God. We are incorporated into him; made sharers in his life. Apart from this union we can do nothing.

Hmmmmm.  Eliminate "In God We Trust" from the money of the people that pay for you to shop at stores that proudly proclaim "We Accept EBT"?  I think not, asshat.

That sort of crap has been going around for decades.
I believe it was 1957 when it was printed on the back of the one dollar bill.
Atheists just had a cow.

Primitive JonLP24 was studying that note carefully, since like most primitives, that's the most amount of money he will ever hold in his hand at one time.  

Normal people would stop and study a big check in the tens of thousands of dollars for a down on their home, or even perhaps that big check to pay off their home.  Or perhaps, they might stop and study the large check they receive when they finally cash out their 401k when they retire.

Not a primitive, though.  $1 is a huge sum of money to a primitive, and so it demands the same level of scrutiny and daydreaming that a decent sum of money would require of a normal person.

"In God We Trust", is also displayed on the 5, the 10, the 20, the 50, and the 100.
Never once, did I see it refer to ONE particular religious belief.
To me, the term God, may refer to any supreme being that a person wishs to believe in.
See, DUmpmonkeys, now you're Islamaphobs, Shintophobes, Hindophobes, etc.
Would you feel better if it said "In Allah We Trust", or "In Shiva We Trust"?
Bite me, DUmpmonkeys.

Well then why stop there?  Lets remove all references to God or "the Creator" from our founding documents as well.

 :whatever: retards.

I am surprised also. I am sure she was also an ordained minister at one point during her illustrious and rich life.
