    You actually changed my postion on this. “If you want to talk about using the traditional national motto. It was “e pluribus unum” and was established during the birth of the nation.” - I agree and it seems reasonable.

    Although, I still don’t see a problem with “In God We Trust” (because of the reasons I wrote before) as it’s a part of the tradition now and something that almost everyone associates with the US.

    As for the influence in schools - both sides are doing that. Sadly, all that political bullshit breaks over children’s back.
