Payback is fun!!!!!!!!!!!!! WRITE IT ON THE BACK OF YOUR ENVELOPES or front! WE THINK THIS IS A GREAT IDEA. WE'LL START WRITING IT ON THE FRONT OF OUR ENVELOPES, TOO! ! Including Bills

You may have heard in the news that a couple of Post Offices in Texas have been forced to take down small posters that say 'IN GOD WE TRUST ,' The law,they say, is being violated.

Anyway, we heard proposed on a radio station show, that we should all write ' IN GOD WE TRUST' on the back of all our mail. After all, that's our National Motto, and it's on all the money we use to buy those stamps. We think it's a wonderful idea.

We must take back our nation from all the people who think that anything that offends them should be removed.

The idea of writing or stamping 'IN GOD WE TRUST ' on our envelopes sounds good to us . WE'RE HAVING A STAMP MADE TOO! Heck,lets use it as our signature on e-mails too!

It's been reported that 86% of Americans believe in God. Therefore, we have a very hard time understanding why there's such a mess about having 'In God We Trust!' on our money and having God in the pledge of Allegiance .

Could it be that WE just need to take action and tell the 14% to 'sit down and shut up'?

:rofl: :rofl:

Nice to know that with the economy in the crapper this is the kind of important issue they concern themselves with

1. Hey! Who you callin' an Ox, moron?

I'm writing on mine, "God don't deliver no mail. Peoples do." Ha!

[azmouse]

2. Coming up with that must have really taxed the single brain cell they all share.

[NeedleCast]

3. In God We Trust = National Motto?

Fail.

[annabanana]

8. E Pluribus Unum! (Out of Many, One)

I believe that is the motto.

Some yahoo put that "notice" up at our local city hall... (I put E Pluribus Unum... with circles and arrows on)

[Journeyman]

13. You'll probably want to do some research on that. . .

[petronius]

16. "E pluribus unum" was never an official US motto. "In God we trust" was

made official by Congress back in the '50s...

[annabanana]

28. ah yes.. during the red baiting, Joe McCarthy buisness... The same

time they stuck "under God" into the pledge..

[Arugula Latte]

4. Oooh! That'll show the libs!

:rofl:

[sutz12]

5. In God we trust...all others pay cash.

:evilgrin:

[MineralMan]

18. Gott Mit Uns!

[mrcheerful]

6. 68% where they pull that number from? Oh yeah thats right they got the 68%

the same place they have their heads shoved up, Glenn Becks ass. National motto? Since when have we had a national motto? Besides the national motto of cons is "if it sounds stupid enough it must be the truth".

[AspenRose]

7. I double dog dare someone to go over there and say "e pluribus unum" is the motto

And this has been around since 2002.

11. Some old gimmicks never die

They just live on in chain emails

[Towlie]

9. What about people who believe in God but don't trust him? Better add them to the 14%.

By the way, this dates all the way back to 2002.

[Locrian]

10. wow - thats quite a brainstorm....

I think I'll have to start writing "Satan Rulzes" on my envelopes.

[Historic NY]

12. All they seem to do is recycled the SOS..Ask them when they heard it? its from 2002.

[Democrats_win]

14. Way to go Floppers!

[n2doc]

15. brainfart, more like it n/t

[Bleacher Creature]

17. Key quote - "and tell the 14% to sit down and shut up"

Do they not realize that this is the EXACT reason why the founders put the separation of church and state in the First Amendment? Do they really think that the point was to protect the 86%??????? Have any of them even looked at the Virginia Statute for Religious Freedom that Thomas Jefferson drafted?

[emulatorloo]

21. not to mention how "OUTRAGED" they'd be if they were told to "Shut up and Sit Down"

they represent a tiny % of the populace.

[mrcheerful]

23. They sure do, remember with them its majority rules until they find themselves in

the minority then they whine and cry abut it not being fair. They are actually that dumb, as most of america seems to be with a few exceptions who research before posting their truths. From what I have seen and heard from those around me is crap like well theres more Dems then cons so why don't they just pass a bill because majority rules.

[Warren DeMontague]

27. You could have saved yourself the trouble and just written "Do they not realize"

No, they don't.

[Critters2]

33. The tyranny of the majority.

They wouldn't know the Constitution if it showed up in their mailboxes COD.

[madrchsod]

19. write on the front of envelopes?

about 4 people will see the message...if the machine does`t kick it out into the hand mail bin.

if it`s on the back maybe 3 will see it.

to bad the freepers have`t figured out that the mail system is automated.

writing on bills? one human or one scan reader will see it.

teabags anyone?

[emulatorloo]

20. I'm ok with it, as long as we don't have to accept the Freeper version of God

At the very least it will keep them busy.

[yellowcanine]

22. They assume that everyone who believes in God agrees with them.

Big mistake. Many religious people do not approve of slathering God slogans everywhere and anywhere.

[Javaman]

24. meh, moses invests. nt

[Initech]

25. Payback is fun? Payback for what, exactly?

:shrug:

[Warren DeMontague]

26. As an Atheist, I can attest that reading "In God We Trust" makes me curl up and mew like a sick cat

It's like garlic to a vampire, it is. Really.

Oh, please, Freepers, not that! ANYTHING but that!

...:eyes:

besides.

a) "86%" of you imbeciles can't read, much less write, and

b) the folks opening your mail at the inflatable wife company only care about the check inside, they don't give a shit what you've written on the envelope.

[JuniperLea]

29. en gawd wee truhste...

In every dream home, a heartache...

[onethatcares]

30. can I make it

In A God I trust, or inagoddadivida, baby, don't you know that I trust you?

Peace

[old mark]

31. WOW! You mean 14% of Americans admitted they don't believe in god?

Not bad - Let's go for 25%, then we can outnumber the Republicans and tell them to sit down and shut up!

mark

[ProgressiveFool]

32. made it eight posts into their thread this time

What a cesspool of unrelieved moronity that place is. Besides, who sends letters anymore?

[mitchum]

34. Well, why are so many of them paranoid gun fondlers then?

They must not trust their god very much.
and my post was not a slur on gunowners. Or paranoiacs.
