    In God We Trust

    There was a lawsuit trying to get In God We Trust taken off of all US Currency. It was of course thrown out of court (hello religion runs this country).

    I personal am not offended by it being on there, but I also think that Religion has no place in Gov't. I am also 100% against religion, except for the few religions that are more about personal growth and not about grouping the masses to believe in some stupid story book.

    Starting today, more to see if this fad catches on, then really to rebel, I will be taking a Sharpie marker and crossing out In God We Trust on all my money.

    Who's with me?

      Actually - most of the framers of the original Constitution were against any religious influence in the new republic they were creating - thats why they specifically made only two references to religion and both were exclusionary against religious infraction into government

      The words "in god we trust" were added to money after the civil war by some religious zealots in power at the time - up until then most people understood the separation clause of the Constitution. Its gone downhill since then.

          LAso unde God wasn't added to the pledge until the 1950's by Congress, in which by that time the Godless pedge was over 60 years old. Besides religion also brings up the point in which part of the Constitution did the government get the right to change someones work of art? So if in 50 yeas some future Congress wants to change the ending to the movie ET, they can?

                                      Defacement of Currency

                                      Defacement of currency is a violation of Title 18, Section 333 of the United States Code. Under this provision, currency defacement is generally defined as follows: Whoever mutilates, cuts, disfigures, perforates, unites or cements together, or does any other thing to any bank bill, draft, note, or other evidence of debt issued by any national banking association, Federal Reserve Bank, or Federal Reserve System, with intent to render such item(s) unfit to be reissued, shall be fined not more than $100 or imprisoned not more than six months, or both.

                                      Defacement of currency in such a way that it is made unfit for circulation comes under the jurisdiction of the United States Secret Service. Their mailing address is:

                                          First off - I dont believe I used those words - however I guess the framers had a different idea than you obviously:

                                          "The 1st Amendment's says, "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion. . ." and in Article VI, Section 3, ". . . no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office or public trust under the United States."

                                          Thomas Jefferson interpreted the 1st Amendment in his famous letter to the Danbury Baptist Association in January 1, 1802:


                                          "I contemplate with sovereign reverence that act of the whole American people which declared that their legislature should 'make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof,' thus building a wall of separation between church and State."

                                          Some Religious activists try to extricate the concept of separation between church and State by claiming that those words do not occur in the Constitution. Indeed they do not, but neither does it exactly say "freedom of religion," yet the First Amendment implies both"

                                                  To add just an observation - one would only have to take a walk around any city in the US to see that the separation of church and state not only exists but has primarily worked - you will see churches of many denominations, as well as temples, shrines etc - so obviously the separation is there

                                                      The letter was to assure the CHURCH that there would not be a national religion forcing only one Church. And you left out the important portion of the 1st amendment.

                                                      Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof;
                                                      Its that Congress WILL NOT MAKE A LAW RESPECTING AN ESTABLISHMENT OF RELIGION!

                                                              You say its there... What does that have to do with whats ACTUALLY IN THE CONSTITUTION? And the fact that there are different denominations has nothing to do with a blurb that Thomas Jefferson wrote in a letter to a Church. The reason the First amendment was written that way was, to ensure that we didnt become another England with forced religion, and no freedom to practice different religions without persecution. Stop throwing out half truths and trying to blur the reality of what is.

And the fact that there are different denominations has nothing to do with a blurb that Thomas Jefferson wrote in a letter to a Church. The reason the First amendment was written that way was, to ensure that we didnt become another England with forced religion, and no freedom to practice different religions without persecution. Stop throwing out half truths and trying to blur the reality of what is.

Indeed they do not, but neither does it exactly say "freedom of religion," yet the First Amendment implies both.
                                                                                              Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof

You are way out there if you really contend that "There is NO SEPERATION OF CHURCH AND STATE IN THE CONSTITUTION"

We need to go back to fucking gold and silver if they don't stop printing more colors on our green bucks, or better yet we need to create a whole new currency based off of real doll parts. Want two new tires for your suv? That'll cost you an arm and a leg! A REAL DOLL arm an a leg.

Under this provision, currency defacement is generally defined as follows: Whoever mutilates, cuts, disfigures, perforates, unites or cements together, or does any other thing to any bank bill, draft, note, or other evidence of debt issued by any national banking association, Federal Reserve Bank, or Federal Reserve System, with intent to render such item(s) unfit to be reissued, shall be fined not more than $100 or imprisoned not more than six months, or both.

I do not trust in God. I do no believe in God. So to say "In God We Trust" is not true, unless you are seperating me from the "we". To say we are "One Nation Under God" is not true, I am not under God, therefore I must not be part of the Nation that they speak of.

I can think for myself thank you. Which is my main reason for not being religious. It doesn't bother me at all actually, I find it amusing to cross out In God We Trust. I am sure it will piss of many people, more than it has any effect on me. It's already working on you.

Just don't represent me as being part of a group I am not. I don't care if someone wants to be a Christian, a Budhist, a Satanist, a Pagan, or whatever they want. Just as long as they keep it to themselves.

                                                                                                                                                                      Unfortuntately, Christianity, and forms of it, are the only ones you will see people on street corners telling other people what they think, knocking on doors, telling people how they should act, what they should believe, and if they don't then I will burn in hell.

                                                                                                                                                                      Frankly, I would rather burn in hell than be up in heaven with most of the wackos who are on street corners preaching.

                                                                                                                                                                      I have never had a Budhist come up to me and say "You will be tortured for eternity if you do not give yourself to Budha"... I have never heard of a Satanist say "Let go to their countries, kill all their leaders, and convert them to Satanism" I have never seen any wars started over Taoism, why is it that I have heard all of these things about Christians? Not really a group of people I want to be associated with.

                                                                                                                                                                      Christianity is based on scare tactics, either believe in it, or suffer a terrible fate. Most Christians don't even follow their own stupid rules, so it is one gigantic hippocracy, which makes me laugh even more at them.

                                                                                                                                                                      You say and believe what ever you want & I'll keep on crossing out In God We Trust on my money.

                                                                                                                                                                          Unfortuntately, Christianity, and forms of it, are the only ones you will see people on street corners telling other people what they think, knocking on doors, telling people how they should act, what they should believe, and if they don't then I will burn in hell.

                                                                                                                                                                          Frankly, I would rather burn in hell than be up in heaven with most of the wackos who are on street corners preaching.

                                                                                                                                                                          I have never had a Budhist come up to me and say "You will be tortured for eternity if you do not give yourself to Budha"... I have never heard of a Satanist say "Let go to their countries, kill all their leaders, and convert them to Satanism" I have never seen any wars started over Taoism, why is it that I have heard all of these things about Christians? Not really a group of people I want to be associated with.

                                                                                                                                                                          Christianity is based on scare tactics, either believe in it, or suffer a terrible fate. Most Christians don't even follow their own stupid rules, so it is one gigantic hippocracy, which makes me laugh even more at them.

                                                                                                                                                                          You say and believe what ever you want & I'll keep on crossing out In God We Trust on my money.

                                                                                                                                                                              If asking me if I wanted to take a personality test every day I walked by their headquarters on Hollywood Blvd. Then sure they tried to convert me.

                                                                                                                                                                              But when I said "No Thank you" they left and went on about their business.

                                                                                                                                                                              But if my 20 dollar bill said "In Xenu We Trust" I would have a problem with that.

                                                                                                                                                                                      How can you have a mixing of church and state that doesn't infringe on the free exercise of one or more of the many religions in America?

                                                                                                                                                                                      For example let's say we want to put the ten commandments up in a court room. Okay. But which ten commandments? The Catholic ones? the Jewish ones? The protestant ones? Which version of the third commandment do we use? How can you post the ten commandments and not infringe on someone's free exercise of a religion that doesn't believe the ten commandments are the word of god? How can you post a version of the ten commandments and not effectively establish that religion as the prevalent one?

                                                                                                                                                                                      Almost every Supreme Court of the last 225 years has interpretted the First Amendment as a seperation between church and state. If you feel otherwise then you really are way out there on the fringe.

                                                                                                                                                                                      So don't tell me that the concept of seperation of church and state is not in the US Constitution - it's right there - the Supreme Court says it is. Even if you wish to interpret the First Amendment differently, then you are still wrong, because the First Amendment means whatever the Supreme Court historically says it means.

As I said over and over show me where it says Seperation of Church and state. It does not.
