I was happy to see that In God We Trust will be put on the $1.00 coins
When I had heard that it was not.I was not happy. When we as a nation take God out of our schools,legistation and goverment. How can we call our selves a Nation. What is the frist thing we do when a loved one is hurt. We pray to God for help. We must all pray that God will want to help us as we as a Nation have taken him away from every thng that is right. I must say God Bless you who ever reads this.
How my heart breaks to find more and more that the United State of America, wants in God we trust removed. how will we continue to be the land of the free, without trusting in God. To who ever, took in god we trust from our coins, I pray for them.
In GOD WE TRUST NEEDS TO STAY ON OUR CURRENCEY ITS THE PREMISE THAT OUR COUNTRY WAS FOUNDED ON AND TO REMOVE IT OR PUT IT ON THE SIDES OF COINS IS ONE MORE SIGN THAT OUR COUNTRY IS GOING DOWN THE WRONG PATH
The motto didn’t appear on any coins until the 2ยข piece was issued in 1864. It wasn’t on all circulating denominations until the first half of the 20th century. It wasn’t on ANY paper bills until the 1957 series of $1 bills and 1963 series of $5 bills.
I have no problems with the presence of the motto, but it’s NOT something the Founding Fathers demanded or even considered.
Think about it. We won WWI and WWII without the motto, but lost Vietnam WITH the motto, so it somehow seems to me that whether it’s on our money or not hasn’t really helped. Faith isn’t in the material symbols we wave about, it’s what we believe in our heads and hearts.
The motto needs to stay on. The point isn’t about when it was approved but that it stay there. In the U.S. the majority rules, that is democracy. If the word God offends you remember, you are in the U.S. and as such you are here by choice not because anybody forced you to come here. When In Rome Do As….does it ring any bells!
In God We Trust, needs to stay on all of our currency. I agree with Ronald Reagan, “If we ever forget that we are One Nation Under God, then we will be a nation gone under.” I personally feel the act of moving the motto to the edge of the coin was another step toward it’s removal. Our founding fathers may not have had, “In God We Trust”, on their currency in their day but,they had that motto in their heart. I’d rather each person have Jesus in their heart than to have it etched on a coin, yet it’s a matter of principle. How many will join me in holding fast to this verse? 2 Chronicles 7:14
If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. Read: John 3:16….In Christian Love~
This is by far the most idiotic question to pursue at this time due to the economy problems. A stupid request unless the mint is creating all new casting molds. As far as the “in God we trust” our government is founded on freedom of religion, and all religions have a God or Gods, so if one is to carefully read each coin as they handle it, the phrase is quite adaptable to one’s own interpretation. Now whoever brought up the question can sit back, relax, get a life and start doing something to HELP the current problems of the world.
