Those words on our money and "Under God" in the Pledge of Allegiance were added in 1954.
Don't you know that?

Thank you so much, I am wrong. In God we Trust was added in 1861. The Pledge of Allegiance was changed in 1954.

It also has some occult symbolism on it, so I do not see how we are under God, if we are willingly looking at occult symbols.

You are wrong. Under God in our pledge was added by an act of Congress in 1954. In God we trust has been on our money much longer maybe forever. xx

So far, the Supreme Court has upheld both "In God we Trust" and "Under God". The US Government may not promote religion, a particular denomination.
There is an American Civil Religion that would feel comfortable for both phrases. It is not an organized religion, it is not a denomination. But many American shared this belief.
Frankly "trusting in God" or "under God" has nothing to do with Americans actually trusting in God and living under God.
There are other religious symbols used in the US Government. Don't forget them as well.

Someone smart added it as the rest of the Federal Reserve Note points to the NWO-note the all 'spying' eye derived from a secrect society where govt watches all. Still no one can honestly deny the founding fathers of this special nation were in reverence to God.

There are also all of the Masonic symbols on the money. The words you quoted need to be taken under consideration along with those symbols. When you do that the door to understanding opens and you begin to see who God is as you learn how far man will go to oppose him.

The 1950's...
Yes, I knew that...
The '50s were a time when the Cold War was at its peak. As such, America strove to be everything russia wasn't. Russia was communist, so we were free. Russia was atheist, so we had to be religious. Otherwise, we were called "red" and "traitors" and deported and all that.
So sad, that we had one thing in common...
we could both wipe out the world with our nuclear arsenals.
wait...
In god we trust was put on our money in the 1880's,when progressivism was taking root..

My question would be in response - in which God are they trusting in? Its a bit vague.
Wouldn't take much to specify - the God of the Christians, the God of the Jews, the God of (fill in the blank), etc etc etc.

I knew this, but I'm sure a lot of Christians think that the US was founded with these phrases on the money and in the pledge. These should be removed as our nation is separate from any religion.

Well, but those were added to distinguish us from the Godless Communists.
Apparently because McCarthy and his ilk couldn't otherwise tell the difference.

it would stay. it relatively is a factor of our way of existence and history and that i think of everybody who has a topic with it could the two a) recover from it or b) detect a clean united states. they might desire to no longer have a topic with Christianity. They ask us to be tolerate and can not seem to tutor us the comparable attention.
