E pluribus unum ("From many, one" or "Out of many, one") is the motto suggested by the committee Congress appointed on July 4, 1776 to design "a seal for the United States of America." The motto E Pluribus Unum was selected by Charles Thomson in 1782 when he created the final Great Seal whose centerpiece is the American bald Eagle. It is all inclusive and is more descriptive of who we are as a nation. More Americans than ever are not identifying with any organized religion and the words "In God We Trust" hold no meaning for many. Please include all Americans by removing references to a God in all government buildings, inside and out, pledges and currency. Thank you.
