And why can't we just use "E Pluribus Unum"? That sounds cool and fits the country without alienating groups of people.
Yeah.One out of many!Yeah! That fits.
our motto should just be "till all are one"
political leaders are dumb
a long time ago, religion was what this country was built uponand then they decided religion and government should be separatedand now this?political leaders are dumb
Believe it or not, Separation of church and state does not exist in the constitution. The only place it ever exists is in a letter the only non-christian founding father wrote (by founding father I mean those who helped form/sign the declaration of independence). Thomas Jefferson. And even he would be shocked by how America is today (as far as religion goes.) The U.S.A was founded a Christian country, on Christian standards and morals. The Bible was originally inspiration for how America would run. At one time, in God we did trust. And America's religious origin seems important to me, and even if I was atheist, I would not want to omit God from America's history. (Or in this case, it's motto.)Also, even if Separation of church and state was in the constitution, it's separation of church and state. Not from.All this means is that America can't be like some areas where the church basically runs the country.
this is true, but the motto for our country being religious at all doesn't interfere with the government.
seperation of church and state I assume is what you mean?
hence why they shouldn't bother with it
wat
if it doesn't interfere with the government why would they bother with it when there are more important matters at hand?
I think the new US motto should be "Dieu et Mon Droit" and Obama replaced by an elderly woman without any power, but a lot of money. :o
