U.S. Supreme Court Declines Review of “In God We Trust” Dispute

Can we get an “Amen, praise the Lord”?

Reuters reports: “The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday declined to review a ruling that the inscription “In God We Trust” on the front of a government building in North Carolina does not violate church-state separation.”

(Hat tip: Reader Darren)

The appeals court said Congress first authorized the phrase “In God We Trust” on coins in 1865, and Congress made it the national motto in 1956. It is inscribed above the speaker’s chair in the U.S. House of Representatives and above the main door of the U.S. Senate chamber.
. . .

The high court rejected the appeal without any comment or recorded dissent.

But will this stop the efforts of those few but active who wish to cut-out America’s founding roots in religion?

Only God knows.
