Should 'In God We Trust' be removed from all U.S. currency?
All U.S. coins bear the inscription, “In God We Trust,” and that’s been the case since 1938, according to the Treasury Department. Now it’s on every bill, as well.In a survey conducted by College Pulse for The College Fix, two-thirds of left-leaning college students say the motto should be removed from all U.S. currency, while only 6% of Republican students agree that it should go.
Meanwhile, a University of Alabama student doesn’t quite see it that way. “It’s one of the U.S.’s mottos, and all countries put their motto on their currency, so it’s fine so long as it’s a motto,” he said. “A generation or two has lost touch with its heritage,” he said. “For all the talk of equality in America, few realize that it is the theistic foundations that ground it. In our ‘progressive’ removal of God, we should beware of what follows.”
