In God We Trust

It only bothers me that a belief is forced upon students by the government.  That is antithetical to what we as citizens should be upholding and what the government should be engaged in.

Does that make sense to you?

no belief is being forced on anyone. It's the national motto - part of your history as a nation, nothing more. . Let me ask you this - what will happen to anyone who chooses not to believe in god or place their trust in him?

It is a declaration of belief and the schools are forced to promote it.  That the declaration of belief is the national motto is besides the point.

They will be breaking the motto that the schools are promoting.

It's funny how devoted some Catholics are to pretending everyone is Christian.

The majority of the people in this country do not identify with any religion at all. Non is the fastest growing group
