The bill’s author, state Rep. Dodie Horton, said to CNN affiliate WVUE, “It doesn’t preach any particular religion at all, but it certainly does recognize a higher power.”

    As far as I know, Supreme Court ruled that it does not establish religion. I’d say the same if most of the country was Hindu and it referenced their deity. It’s a fucking motto and most motto’s are outdated and show some cultural reference to the people long gone.

      Yes, I know what they ruled. Do you think every Supreme Court ruling is correct? Dred Scott v. Sandford was the proper decision?

        I mean, you said that most of the country is still christian? So, in a democratic society which is mostly christian there is a motto that references times when even more of the country was christian and the soul of the country was mostly christian?

        Yeah, a huge problem.
