Here's your chance to let the media know where the
people stand on our
faith in God, as a nation. NBC is taking a poll on 'In
God We Trust' to
stay on our American currency. Please send this to every
American you
know so they can vote on this important subject. Please do
it right
away, before NBC takes this off the web page. Poll is still
open so you can vote.

1. What really gets me

is that so many people say that having that on currency is not a violation of the 1st Amendment and is not a sign of our country not being secular, yet there are constantly shitty things like this where the discussion is about "our faith in god as a nation."

Theocracy creeps, people, it doesn't come with a bang.

2. Aw, geez, I got this, too...from a right-wing relative.

It must be going around....

3. nah, just get the Christ out of the US military

and all of out tax funded government systems. Currency doesn't really bug me... or didn't... until the Jesus Taliban took over.

4. Get gods out of schools. The money isn't worth anything anyway. nt

5. NO

it just should have never been put on in the first place. But taking it off would piss off some people unduely, so why feed those trolls?

[Goblinmonger]

6. Yeah, slavery was a bad idea, too

but why piss people off and try to get rid of it?

7. God = Mammon

The temple money-changers gotta love it.

[Iggo]

8. Yes. But it doesn't bother me all that much.

Christian prayers at the beginning of government functions bother me a lot more. (As would any religious invocation, but in this case it's christian.)

Now if they are both part and parcel...then what the hell. Yes. Take it off. I would love for my government to be religion-free.

9. Doesn't Matter

What WILL Happen because of this is giving the right yet another bullshit talking point about how the Godless left is anti-American. Every time some ass-clown atheist pulls a stunt like this, it just does more damage to the left.

10. What ignoramuses, historic

Like God in the Pledge of Allegiance it is recent and is also considered blasphemy putting God's name on MONEY of all things, can you say BAAL!
