The Carpetbagger Report � Blog Archive � The national motto as the 'American trust in the Christian Deity'

The national motto as the 'American trust in the Christian Deity'
"U.S. Rep. John Duncan, R-Tenn., has plans to introduce a resolution reaffirming the motto, one that would call on Americans to celebrate it on or around its July 30 anniversary with patriotic and sacred assemblies and prayer. […]

[The resolution includes a] list of 16 historical findings, including that 'the fundamental trust of the American people upon the God of the Bible is irrefutable.' It also cites Psalm 33:12 ('Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord') and proclaims that 'This American trust in the Christian Deity dates from the earliest colonial days.'"
