Re:our mottos were not original (Score 2, Insightful)

This is precisely why I hate that "one nation, under god" was added in the 50's to the pledge, and also the mottos on our money. Many people these days don't realize that it wasn't always that way and use that as an argument for thinking we are a nation built on religion. Even if our forefathers had faith, they realized how important it is to be left up the individual instead of dictating who's right and who's wrong.
