Johnson's first full year in office AND an election year. When you try to get guns AND butter from the economy, something has to give.

At the time that the 13 colonies were forming into the new nation, we used Spanish and British money, which did not include that inscription. The new nation made it better than it will in our day.
Nonetheless, I believe that many in our government are godless. That includes someone who is often suspected of being a Muslim. Just my gut feeling, but it bothers me that I'd even have to suspect that at the highest levels of our government.

It really doesn't matter what it does or doesn't say anymore?
'Cause, it's only worth 11 cents no matter what it says!

Why don't you get a "grip" and read some of the post right after mine and my reply? Someone already said it was on the edge before you and I looked and sure enough. What did you do, read my post and and post a reply without reading anything else then jab me? SO YES, I did bother to LOOK at the coins. Get a grip, give me a break brother. Damn man. And yes, "I" will accept them now that it is on there.

And what "it" that is now supposedly accepting them might that be?
And the other "it" - the motto - was ALWAYS "on there."
Next pointless tantrum......
Hay man, it was a typo, ok?? "it" was "I" will accept the coin. You got a bug in your pants or something? Guess I better proof read my stuff when it comes to replying to you huh? Do you have a problem that I have a problem that the liberal left wants to remove God from everything? Tantrum? You seem like someone trying to... well, lets drop it and move on ok?
Dang.

My understanding is that, "IN GOD WE TRUST" first appeared on American coins during the Civil War, when the nation became even more fervently religious.
Frankly, I don't care whether the phrase is on there.
I don't subscribe to any organized religion but I do believe in a higher being and the concepts of Heaven and Hell.
I don't care what anyone believes, even atheists, as long as everyone treats each other with dignity, respect and kindness.
Odd how those four words seem to create such hate and derision.
I wonder how Jesus, Buddha or Confucius would have felt about it?
My guess is that they would have shrugged at the words, and been more interested in whether you use some of your money to help those in need.

If it's not important enough for your deity to command the world to put its name on pieces of metal, why are you concerned about it?

"Render unto Caesar..."
I go to the bank once a month and get a couple rolls of gold dollars and also try to scarf up any $2 bills they have, sometimes they have them and sometimes they don't. I get a charge out of using them, and most people like it and will comment and say "wow, I've never seen one of those before" in reference to the dollars, or "I've not seen one of these in years" referring to the $2 bills.
