In God We Trust - it's printed on the money in your wallet.

A BS phrase that was added in 1956

I prefer E pluribus unum
Out of many, one

Imagine there's no Heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace

You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world

You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one


YouTube - Imagine - John Lennon (live)

You should probably read the reverse side of that seal...

It doesn't name a specific religion or god.

Annuit cœptis means approved of our undertakings, without naming who that might be. You can believe in a higher order without being Christian or Jew or Muslim or ...

Right, just like "In God We Trust" doesn't name a specific God. What God do you think they were talking about, though... the founders of our country? Buddha?

First of all, it didn't even say god.

Secondly
Deism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Third
“Lighthouses are more helpful than churches”

Who do you think said that?

Fourth
Thomas Jefferson had his own version of the Bible without any of the fantasy stuff.
The Life and Morals of Jesus of Nazareth: Extracted Textually from the Gospels Greek, Latin, French, and English

You're living in fantasy land.

How you can deny that the country was founded under certain beliefs is beyond me, but whatever... that's your belief and you're entitled to it.

And I'm not saying our beliefs, or what we were founded on, is right or wrong. I'm just saying it is what it is.
