It was added, IIRC, because of growing religious sentiments after the civil war. Anybody who wants to keep it there is an enemy of religious freedom.

I don't believe in god but I understand that our forefathers originally put that on there. Pretty much the main reason I want it to stay on there is because I'm sick of people saying they're "offended" by the phrase because they don't believe in god. Tough.

It was put made a national motto in the 1950's during McCarthyist paranoia over Communism. About the same time, "Under God" was inserted between "our country" and "indivisible". Ironic, isn't it? BTW, to respond to an earlier responder... No, those mottos weren't added by our Founding Fathers. This nation was doing just find for the first 150 years before that nonsense was foisted on us. What's really ironic is that the Christian Dominiionists who are trying to make this country into a Christian theocracy are the ones protected by separation of church and state. Without it, the Church of England, or one of the other churches of the time, would be our official religion. It's only with separation of church and state that all the religions in this country are able to thrive. It stinks.
