If so I greatly fear for this nation. God's wrath would be swift. Our country is a Republic there fore it is a representation of us, the majority rules. the majority of us are happy and satisfied with God being present, so it should stay as we, hte majority approve, if you don't like God, then why are you in this country, We aren't going to change, my best bet for those who are constantly in court trying to change our country is go to a country that's how you want it, or pipe down.

Do we as a people trust in God? If so I think it is perfectly appropriate. If not get rid of it. What about e plurbis unim? Or that funny pyramid with an eye at the top. Get rid of those too. They are only symbols of tradition, and we don't need that stuff cluttering up our money. Just put a big 20 on the bill. That way no one can have any issue with it, and the counterfeiters will have an easier time.

I doubt it. Our very Constitutional Forefathers had the phrase "In God we Trust" part of the design of U.S. Coins. Our Forefathers were God-fearing men, but most were Agnostic (they didn't believe in any one Sect of Christianity).

They believed in God, which is why the first part of the Declaration has God in the very first paragraph.

However, as another answered, all transactions may become electronic in the near future and physical money will no longer be needed.

After all, the U.S. only makes $.03/paper money/coin struck from the Federal Reserve. This means: for every one, five, ten, twenty or fifty dollar bill printed, the U.S. only makes that 3 cents. So, if the total bills of all denominations printed in one year was only 1000 bills, the U.S. would only make for that year $30.00.

The Federal Reserve (despite it's misleading name) IS NOT part of the U.S., and was NEVER supposed to been part of the U.S. Therefore, it pays no taxes, it has never been audited, and it doesn't answer to the People of the U.S (or the representatives we vote into office).

God in the sense it's being used on money is purely generic and doesn't espouse anything beyond a mere belief that there is a God. That mere belief offends many, however since it isn't directly related to religion I don't see the arguement for taking the phrase off the money or out of shcools, courthouses, and other public institutions.

No. Because i want more trust in god . The mroe money i get the mroe religious i became. Imagine i have few billions of trust. How could i refuse god if we will take that line away.

On the second hand, its the history and may stay tehre as well. Plus it will cost too much money to change it.

Probably not. As other people have suggested, though, I think eventually paper money will no longer be printed, so it'll be a moot point. They'd better not write in god we trust on my credstick, that's all I'm saying. I'll scratch that **** off.

How about a move towards self-reliance in the 21st century and replace God with something else: In Humanity We Trust? In America We Trust? In Liberty We Trust, maybe? - all would work just as well, and appeal to all citizens of whatever faith or non-faith they choose.

I certainly hope not. I think we need to believe in something bigger than ourselves. Belief in God is a good thing, even if some people don't; I don't think it hurts to have the idea of God on money.

I think we will stop using paper currency before that happens. We will all have a chip implanted that is linked to our bank account and we can make purchases anywhere without having to worry losing our money or getting robbed.

No,it was in the plan set out by the Founding Fathers of this nation. It is a part of our nations history and be kept at all costs.
