I once inquired why “In God We Trust” is printed on your dollar notes I was told that it is because everybody else has to pay.

Just the mere fact the First Amendment of the Constitution reaffirms the freedom of religious expression would be enough proof that the Founders never envisioned another theocracy.

We r a joke 🙄

I've always wondered why that BS is on our money.

@TheoryNumber3 I googled few yrs ago , I am a dummy , not well red human ( if it’s not medical , I know 0 next to nothing , but thank u Google ). Is not even that old of a deal . Another great way to keep people in fear 🙄

@TheoryNumber3, @Pralina1 The knights of Columbus and the commie scare got in god we trust and one nation under god inserted where they did not belong in 1954 I believe.

@Pralina1

“In God We Trust” was placed on United States coins due to the increased religious sentiment during the Civil War and first appeared on the 1864 two-cent coin.

On July 11, 1955, Congress passed H.R. 619, which mandated "In God We Trust" be included on all U.S. currency. The first paper money to include "In God We Trust" was printed in 1957, , shortly after “In God We Trust” also had been made the official national motto by an act of Congress." This was during the Eisenhower administration.

And you're not a dummy 🙂 I've seen your posts.

@TheoryNumber3 That was of course the beginning of the cold war, when atheisim was seen as an assocciate of communism.
