The United States of America was never intended to be a Christian nation, and as President Obama has declared, "...we do not consider ourselves a Christian nation or a Jewish nation or a Muslim nation." The First Amendment of our Constitution clearly defines this, and as a country, we should be able to recognize the importance of the separation of church and state. This phrase was not present until the mid-1950s, when the US was going through the Red Scare (a period where Sen. Joseph McCarthy called out many public figures on being "Communists", subsequently ruining their reputations). It does not belong on our money, and it should be removed as soon as possible.
