Are We Headed Toward Becoming a Christian Theocracy?

The original motto of the United States of America, that was part of the original Great Seal, was "E Pluribus Unum" -- literally meaning in In Unity One in Latin, signifying the bond created between the thirteen colonies.  It was printed on US currency and stamped on US coins until the motto was replaced by "In God We Trust" in 1956 during the height of the cold war with the USSR. The tone of the original motto may have been too suggestive of the collectivist spirit embodied in the "godless" philosophy of the communist state.

Two years earlier, in 1954, The Pledge Of Allegiance which was originally composed by Christian Socialist Francis Bellamy in 1892 and formally adopted by Congress as the pledge in 1942, was changed by adding the words "under God."

Little if any consideration was given to the atheist minority or the original secular intent of the founding fathers when these changes were made.  And later as we have seen the religious right has gained even greater influence in Washington, and they have been making an even greater concerted effort to rewrite history in order to reach their religiously motivated goals. We now hear a continuous misrepresentation of the intent of the founding fathers, and a constant repetition of, "We are a Christian nation," with little consideration for people of other religions or the nonreligious.

But many doubt the Christian dominated GOP will not be satisfied until their ideas about their Christian god dominate all aspects of American life.  The following video offers evidence of their growing desire for a Christian theocracy.
