Here in Idiot America where I live we have these four words on our paper money and coins: IN GOD WE TRUST
We have a coin called a "dime" that's worth 10 cents. I think it's the smallest coin on this planet. Using a magnifying glass I was able to see "IN GOD WE TRUST".
On the back of a dollar bill:
THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
IN GOD WE TRUST
ONE DOLLAR
This is an obvious violation of the Establishment Clause of our Bill of Rights, also known as our wall of separation between church and state. This bullshit exists because our Supreme Court refused to get rid of it.
It gets worse. Here in Idiot Florida where I live the state motto is "In God We Trust".
Also in Idiot Florida all public schools are required to display "In God We Trust" in a conspicuous place. My vocabulary sucks so I frequently have to look things up. Conspicuous: standing out so as to be clearly visible.
This bullshit, beside violating the Establishment Clause, is child abuse. Children see the god bullshit and they think it's normal. It's not normal. It's insanity.
I noticed countries like Norway and Denmark don't have any god bullshit on their currency. They also don't have any religious scum. Virtually everyone is normal, aka atheist.
IN GOD WE TRUST means there is a magical being hiding somewhere in the universe and the thing is honest. We can trust it.
The thing has never given us any evidence it is real. It has never tried to communicate with us. And of course it's not real for the same reason the Easter Bunny is not real. It's fucking impossible.
Somebody might say the in-god-we-trust is not a big fucking deal. But it is a big deal because if we let assholes for Jeebus get away with this bullshit then they will think they can force biology teachers to give magical creationism equal time with evolution in our public schools. That's why there should be zero tolerance for anything that doesn't respect our wall of separation.
