    I know, but it’s been, what, almost 70 years… Why change it now? I don’t think anyone from a non-christian religion is offended by it, right? Although, true, reverting to a previous motto would please everyone I suppose…

          My guy came to actively participate the US politics community and “hasn’t been following” one of, if not THE largest political controversies the US has seen this generation.

          I’m sorry sir/ma’am/other, but if I give you the benefit of the doubt to assume you’re not just trolling, there is likely nobody here who will even consider any input you may have.
