Find a buffalo head nickle, circa 1930's. It will NOT have "In God we Trust" on it. The later references to God fly in the face of our doctrine.[/QUOTE]
Hot damn, Lankist is smart.

If he saw conservatism he'd do the same.
Why are good political viewpoints never the mainstream ones anymore?

[QUOTE=Used Car Salesman;21182542]Indeed. Muslims especially, but perhaps because they're the only ones left that are dumb enough to use the law to enforce shit written in a fiction book thousands of years ago.[/QUOTE]
You have seven boxes, that means we have seven Muslims here.
Hey Muslims, women's rights.

Actually IGWT was added to some currency around the time of the Civil War, but the Red Scare of the 1950s was when it (and "under God") in the Pledge were added.

Why? You'd like to see Dubai crumble and the slave laborers starve to death?

In God We Trust was added by individual mints, which were operated on a pseudo-private basis, but it was not a national mandate until the 1960's.
It was nationally mandated when the fuckheads in Washington changed our perfectly fine uncodified motto, E Pluribus Unum, and made the new national motto In God We Trust.
Because a fucking state based on individualism, whose fucking motto was "Out of Many, One," and whose foreign policy for CENTURIES was to mind ourselves and be self sufficient, should be about trusting in a higher power.
Fuck In God We Trust.
In Ourselves We Trust.

You mean L. Ron Hubbard?
That may be the first time I've ever seen it as "Elron", though, for which I give you props.
