You actually changed my postion on this. "If you want to talk about using the traditional national motto. It was “e pluribus unum” and was established during the birth of the nation." - I agree and it seems reasonable.

Although, I still don't see a problem with "In God We Trust" (because of the reasons I wrote before) as it's a part of the tradition now and something that almost everyone associates with the US.

As for the influence in schools - both sides are doing that. Sadly, all that political bullshit breaks over children's back.

But it does not establish a any religion as a country's official religion. It's a remnant of past times.

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.

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 It's a fucking motto and most motto's are outdated and show some cultural reference to the people long gone.
