'In God We Trust' to be official Fla. motto
The Associated Press
Originally published on May 05, 2006


“In God We Trust” will be the official motto of Florida if Gov. Jeb Bush signs a bill passed unanimously Thursday by the Senate.

The measure (HB 1145) had earlier passed the House.

“In God We Trust” has been considered an unofficial, or customary motto of the state for years, but isn’t in statute.



Okay, my thought is, it's not necessarily worth getting worked up over - since, like [info]sunfell once pointed out, just like the money, it doesn't specify *which* god "we" trust in (although, I kinda think it implies which one). OTOH, given dominionist attempts to make their brand of religion state business, I'm curious to hear what other people think about this. Regardless, it will likely pass, being that it's already passed both houses and this is Jeb we're talking about here.

But hey, we're also officially the "Key Lime Pie" State now, too, so it ain't all bad. ;)
