		<itunes:summary>South Carolina Approves I Believe License Plates &#8211; The SC legislature just approved specialty license plates that include the words &#8220;I Believe&#8221; along with a Christian cross and a stained glass window.  Florida tried the same trick and failed.  We&#8217;ll talk to Herb Silverman, longtime SC resident and president of the Secular Coalition for America (www.secular.org), about their opposition to this.
City Halls Display In God We Trust &#8211; A listener in California alerted us to a movement intent on convincing city councils across the country to display the national motto.  The fact that the motto is &#8220;In God We Trust&#8221; has nothing whatsoever to do with religion, of course.
Feedback &#8211; We respond to some of the excellent and thoughtful emails we&#8217;ve been getting from our listeners.  Keep that feedback coming!
