Atheists Fail to Remove 'In God We Trust' From Money After Court Defeat, Call It 'Utterly Revolting'
PIXABAY/TBIT"In God We Trust," the national motto that's been used for centuries on public buildings and money, is now under debate after Democratic state senators opposed its display in Minnesota schools.
Atheists who failed to remove the national motto "In God We Trust" from U.S. coins and bills following an appeals court defeat have called their loss "utterly revolting."
The 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in St. Paul, Minnesota, upheld in a 3-0 decision on Tuesday a lower court ruling from December 2016 that found that the national motto on money did not violate First Amendment free speech and religious rights.
As the New Doe Child # 1 v. The Congress of the United States case explains, 27 individuals who are atheists or children of atheists, along with two atheist organizations, declared that they "definitely do not trust in God."
(Hmm. I do hope my schadenfreude isn't showing.)
