The bill’s author, state Rep. Dodie Horton, said to CNN affiliate WVUE, “It doesn’t preach any particular religion at all, but it certainly does recognize a higher power.”

    I know, but it’s been, what, almost 70 years… Why change it now? I don’t think anyone from a non-christian religion is offended by it, right? Although, true, reverting to a previous motto would please everyone I suppose…

      I mean…what’s 70 years of precedence…it’s not like Roe v. Wade or anything?

        So, you’re saying the motto shouldn’t be changed? :) As for RvW, as unbelivably as it might seem, I didn’t follow that one so I can’t take a position because I am not informed enough.

          My guy came to actively participate the US politics community and “hasn’t been following” one of, if not THE largest political controversies the US has seen this generation.

          I’m sorry sir/ma’am/other, but if I give you the benefit of the doubt to assume you’re not just trolling, there is likely nobody here who will even consider any input you may have.

            Yes, I had some personal issues and laid off politics for a while. Shame that disables me from participating in any other topic.
