If by "stuff" you are referring to "In God We Trust" on our money, if I am not mistaken it was there long before Communism was around.
What do you study?
Only history?

Read the second part of the sentence, Ivy.
What has communism got to do with the Civil War, dimwit?
Who said it did, Ivy?
I didn't.
Your assumption of "stuff" is as limited as the rest of your thinking.
You may now be upset and post emoticons again.
I have many, including various aspects of history. I'm reading an interesting book about the history of the congo under belgian colonial rule. I just found it amusing you take more interest in obsolete firearms than you know, how you came to exist.
You're the one who said it was a "by-product of anti-communist hysteria", not me, numbnuts.
Yes, I did.
What part of that do you not understand?
under god was added to the pledge as an anti-communist thing in the 50's. in god we trust on currency was around for a while
I understand perfectly.
It has nothing to do with anti-communist hysteria because it first started in the Civil War.
I also understand you are talking out your ass again.

Yep, it really took off when Americans needed to justify killing other Americans.
Using God for purposes of fear and rationalization is pretty weak tbh.
I specifically mentioned "In God We Trust" not "Under God".
What year did "In God We Trust" start to appear on paper currency?
What year did "In God We Trust" become the official motto of the United States of America?
Don't dodge these questions.
You limited your own thinking.
You can't force others to do so.
There were no limitations except where it comes to your mind.
I specifically said "In God We Trust", it is there in black and white.
You made a comment and quoted me on that specific phrase and attributed it to anti-communist hysteria.
This is not true. It was around since the Civil War.
It was another faux pas on your part.
Be a man and admit it.

You dodged those questions.
Answer them or dodge them again. Either way it's going to make you look like an idiot. No offense intended.
I have your "dodge" hanging.
I don't do anything because you demand it, I do it at my leisure.
It started on the 2 cent coin in 1864, and on other coins in 1866, and has been on the penny since 1909.
That is when it started and has gone on since then. When it was put on paper currency is besides the point.
You dodged both questions again.
You look like an idiot.
Told you already, it is besides the point I was making.
Everything else is unimportant, unnecessary, and a sidetrack.
And the only idiot is the one you are making of yourself.
Own it.

Just answer the questions honestly.
Why are you afraid of the truth?
Truth? You? All you do is lie.
Have you owned up to your insignificance yet?
You should.

lol no wonder you dodged those questions
You were terrified of the truth.
Now you have to accept it.
It has nothing to do with the coins and the motto on the coins and when it first started.
Truth is a foreign concept to you, that is blatantly obvious.
Have you owned up to your insignificance yet?
You should.
