In God We Trust


"I support the doctrine of seperation of church and state as traditionally interpreted to prohibit the establishment of an official national religion. But I am opposed to the doctrine of seperation of church and state as currently interpreted to divorce government from any formal recognition of God. The current trend strikes a potentially fatal blow at the concept of the divine orgin of our rights, and unlocks the door for an easy entry of future tyranny. If Americans should ever come to believe that their rights and freedoms are instituted among men by politicians and bureaucrats, then they will no longer carry the proud inheritance of their forefathers, but will grovel before their masters seeking favors and dispensations"

Ezra Taft Benson
