Why not tell us how the use of the phrase has anything to do with the establishment of religion?
The First Amendment provides that Congress make no law respecting an establishment of religion or prohibiting its free exercise.
Cause it says establishment.
Added, because if you make a law that talks about God which is religious then you are making a law about religion which is establishing religion.
Also, in a subthread below, and in response to someone using a word you said isn’t in the Amendment, you said “if the law talks about God” but the Amendment doesn’t say anything about “talking about”; it specifically addresses establishment.
No, I said "It doesn't say anything about trust," because they were bringing up that how does "trust" mean "worship" which the amendment doesn't say either. It specifically says "make no law respecting an establishment of religion". It doesnt say "trust" or "worship" anywhere at all. And if the law puts into writing , "in god we trust" that sure as anything is making a law establishing religion. I dont see any way it could be more clear at all. If it said "In Trump we trust" then it would without a doubt put into law that Trump is a major foundation of our government.
