I bet Jesus didn't expect us to do that!
According to the website that knows everything:
"In God we trust" was adopted as the official motto of the United States in 1956 as an alternative or replacement to the unofficial motto of E pluribus unum, adopted when the Great Seal of the United States was created and adopted in 1782."[1][2]
E pluribus unum was originally stolen from the Brits according to some, and from a gentlmen's magazine in fact.
no, not that type of gentleman's magazine!
So in reality, America should get some credit for creating it's own motto. Unfortunately, it's completely hypocritical. The move was first proposed by religious figures and then Secretary of the Treasury Salmon P. Chase in 1863.
free soil...like a boss
Over the course of a hundred years or so it was added and removed from money until the cold war, when it was added to all money to help differentiate America from the the atheistic Communist regime they were battling.
That'll show 'em, Ike!
The actual origin of the phrase now printed on every red cent?
"According to Ted Alexander, Chief Historian at Antietam National Battlefield, "In God We Trust" was used by the 125th Pennsylvania Infantry as a battle cry on September 17, 1862, during the Battle of Antietam".[9][10]
history is neat!
