In God We Trust

Should the motto "In God We Trust" be removed from U.S. currency?  This is one that should go down in the books. Here is an article that was posted on MSNBC. I find it very entertaining. You may or you may not. You be the judge.

Atheist challenges ‘In God We Trust’

Pledge of Allegiance foe Newdow sues to remove motto from U.S. currency

SAN FRANCISCO - An atheist who has spent four years trying to ban the Pledge of Allegiance from being recited in public schools is now challenging the motto printed on U.S. currency because it refers to God.

Michael Newdow seeks to remove “In God We Trust” from U.S. coins and dollar bills, claiming in a federal lawsuit filed Thursday that the motto is an unconstitutional endorsement of religion.

Newdow, a Sacramento doctor and lawyer, used a similar argument when he challenged the Pledge of Allegiance in public schools because it contains the words “under God.”

Now its your chance. Please vote. I believe God thinks it's worth it. I know Troop 51 thinks it is. Here is the link. And thanks for voting.
