In God we trust! Oh really?

Thats what written on the USD.But , do all Americans trust in God? What about the atheist American citisens?How its politically correct to have a such statement on the state atributes? Isn't such statement discrimation against nonbelievers?
Let's take some countries national flags and coat of arms which contain religious marks on it.Most northern European countries has a cross on their flags.What about non christian citisens of those countries?Every citisen must love and respect their flag.But would muslim citisens of those countries will love and respect the flag containing christian cross?
I think in modern world states should not have any religious signs on the state atributes.
I m not even gonna talk about British anthem.

God save the Queen.grin wine

Richard,as usual,u r politically correct in ur comment.thumbs up cheers
I dont think gods to worried about what people belive these days , knowing that its who ou call out to when you die , like do you call out to your family or some other god that dose not exist , or do you even mention .." jesus christ , I'm dieing "
its your will

cheers
Hi Leo lips
Agree Virgo,what i m saying is,arent we evolved enough to take out such signs out of national atributes?grin cheers
Nessa,Its so pleasant to see ur pretty face on my bloggrin hug lips
Rummy ~ wave They put it on the dollar so the unspoken inference becomes: "All others pay cash!"

In God we trust, all others pay cash...laugh rolling on the floor laughing thumbs up cheers
Haha,Hi Elmo,handshake probably u r right on thatlaugh cheers
While there's some truth to what you say,
most of us (aetheists) are very tolerant
of people believing in deities.
Our stance in general is, let them believe
whatever they want to believe, as long
as the religious zealots are not limiting rights to individuals.
peace

I could care less whether my money says, "in god we trust",
or "Santa is our savior" or "Debbie does Leo", as long as I can buy a nice cut of salmon with it. grin
Leo, With all that is going on today, I think worrying about God as a symbol is very low on the priority list . Now if it really bothers you then get a credit card that doesn't have a religious message or reference on it . . . . .. laugh laugh laugh
"Debbie does Leo" on the USD? laugh Jim ,then we wouldnt have world crisis ,if it was written on the dollarrolling on the floor laughing cheers
Frankie,actually it doesn't bother me what on the US Dollar.cos I trust in God myself,and i use my national currency AZN which is stronger than dollar,and doesnt have any religious sign or picture on it.laugh Just a wanted to see peoples opinion about this subject.grin cheers
Leo_7 aka rummy, good blog handshake that the whole seperation of church and state is a contradictory subject, but while you're at it, let's also ask the following about the right hand placement on the Bible.... why are governmental officials sworn into office with a Bible here? dunno Why are citizens sworn into courts with a Bible here? dunno and finally, why are sworn statements accepted in the legal systems here with a Bible? dunno

hmmm Doesn't the Bible say not to swear in Matthew 5:34? dunno but to take an oath!!! dunno

idea God save Yourself! dunno wine
Leo there is something like traditions and self-respect. If tomorrow aliens emigrate in the US maybe the d want to put their sign on the flag.

I don't care if the crosses on the flags of Christian countries bother the Muslim citizens. If it bothers them they are free to get back to their countries.
Hi Paul.thats good point from u.thumbs up
I never understoond people swearing in the court.I mean come on,who would care about the Bible in the court and tell the truth just cos of they were swore to Bible.when they werent going to tell the truth for personall mattershandshake cheers
