The National Motto

[Woberts]

So what do ya'll think? I think that it should be replaced with the more secular "E Pluribus Unum."
It's pretty obvious which god it's referring to.
Anyway, please explain why you chose whatever you chose.

translate the Latin for me.....I hear different takes on it

 

[Evangelicalhumanist]

Why should money need a motto of any kind? My Canadian money says "Bank of Canada" and the denomination. Seems to work quite well.

 

[Rational Agnostic]

Couldn't care less.

I've heard it translated as "From the many, one." That means that no matter what, we will be assimilated in the Borg singular consciousness.

Our new national motto should be "Resistance is futile."

 

[Nakosis]

Maybe we should just do away with physical currency. These days, I seldom have any physical money on me.

But, as to your question, I don't care. Does money really need a motto?
In Trump we Trust?

Out of many, one.

I think it should be what it always was until Eisenhower. "In God we Trust" only makes sense to theists, not deists like the founding fathers of this country were. Deists don't "trust in God". God set the ball in motion, and then left us on our own to figure things out based on higher principles of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, free from religious encroachments. It was a manipulation Christians inserted long after the founding of this country to favor their theist notions of some sort of mini-theocracy they were prefer with their version of King Jesus (a distorted image of themselves) ruling over everyone against their will.

We should go back to "Mind Your Business".

Oh god, please don't give them any ideas! Now we're going to see that on our credit cards!

like Star Trek?

when provision can be had just by commanding a computer (replicator)
then we would have no need to earn the abundance

until ALL things are free for the asking....
money will need to be....in hand

(hmmmm....I suspect having posted as I did)

a number in the hand or in the forehead
and you cannot buy or sell without it

 

[Audie]

We should go back to "Mind Your Business".

"Dont Tread On Me"

 

[Thief]

how about?......In Fair Trade

too presumptuous?

 

[Thief]

hey, I know...

[Father Heathen]

We should go with the original one that the Founding Fathers decided upon, which is "E puribus unum" (1782), instead of the McCarthy era "In God We Trust" (1956).

I like that.

No, it isn't.

But that's Satanic.
It would never fly down here.
