How about we remove the Fed from our currency. That offends me more.

What a great poll! I put everyone that voted "yes" on my ignore list. Many of them were there already, of course. Thanks!

Really? You put everyone that votes "yes" on the ignore list? All 69 (at the moment) folks?

I suppose next you want to remove all references to God everywhere in our nation. Why don't you start with Los Angeles which means City of Angels, San Francisco which means St. Francis, St Louis, etc, etc, etc. Then remove all saint names on all hospitals that may receive some government money for anything they do. You have a big job ahead of you.

Go ahead and think our nation is not Christian but everywhere you turn you will see Christian references. I don't know how you live here.

God is worshiped in private. Not put on dollar notes.

The term separation of church and state appears nowhere in the Constitution. Instead of trying to destroy America, why don't you try to make her better - at least give it some thought, if not a try.

Church, and specifically Christianity appears nowhere in the Constitution.

Oh please. Even if "In God We Trust" was removed from our currency, it wouldn't "destroy America".

I guess I have more faith in the strength of this country than some others do.
