It was officially adopted as the phrase to appear on every coin in the 1950's. So Brain, apparently it's been in use in this country for a long, long time.

Actually 57 years is less than 1/4th of the time our country has been in existence.
Still doesn't support your false belief that all of the founding fathers were christian, does it?

It means something to a lot of people and it looks like that they were apparently the founders of this country. If you don't like it, don't spend the money.

I have no desire to change the phrase, remove it, or affect/alter it in any way, shape, or form....I'm a conservative.
The argument is that all of the Founding Fathers were not christian and you have failed miserably at proving that they were (if you even remember that WAS the point)
