"In God We Trust" replacement
September 5, 2023 at 6:17 pm
With what would you replace "In God We Trust" from U.S. currency?
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Just remove it, no need to replace it with anything.

We just need to forego with paper and coin altogether. Virtual currency is more difficult to mark with a bias.

As long as we have a criminal underworld (or Congress), we'll need portable funds. Hard to buy a Senator without cold cash.
