1. What do "In God We Trust" and "God Bless America" mean to you (especially if you aren't Christian).

It means absolutly nothing and if anything a weakness in our society. I'm not anti-religion, but when our own presidents put their own religion into their duties of abidding the laws it only causes problems. I never said it during our "Pledge allegiance" to the flag" either.

The terms should be removed.

2. Does the presence of God in US rhetoric represent a melding of religion and state?

They always have, and the two were never seperated as far as I'm concerned. You goto court and lay your hand on a bible and say so help me god? (yes that is not capitalized.) I personally would not do so and ask for an alternate method to swear my truth.

Religion has no part in the Goverment as far as I'm concerned.
