An open letter to the President & U.S. Congress; State Governors & Legislatures

Stop the Lies! America Was Founded on Freedom — Not Under God

37 so far! Help us get to 50 signers!

Stop rewriting history. The U.S. was NOT founded “under God.” • The Constitution never mentions God • Article VI bans religious tests for office • The First Amendment separates church & state • “Under God” wasn’t in the Pledge until 1954 • “In God We Trust” became the motto in 1956—during the Cold War These were political additions, not divine design. We were founded on freedom of religion, not theocracy. Invoking God to justify power is not patriotism. It’s revisionism. Call to action: DEFEND the Constitution. Uphold religious freedom. Reject Christian nationalism—before it rewrites us all.
