I voted to remove it, but honestly if there had been an option, "I'm ambivalent to your rhetorical slogans and find them puerile" I would have chosen that. Who’s the “we” in “In God we trust” anyway. It certainly isn’t me.
I’m much more opposed to forcing the pledge on children who truly do not understand the significance, with our without the word “God” in it. This is a practice that should be stopped on an ethical basis, in my opinion. |

I fail to see the patriotic significance of "In God We Trust". I don't believe in god, so am I unpatriotic? |
