They (Congress) made this our National Motto in 1955.  It
used to be "E pluribus unum" ("out of many, one"), which
I really like.  The latter was Old Ben's idea, I think.

Just a year before, in 1954, the Congress, in another fit
of "we're all of the same religion, now, aren't we?" added
"..under God.." to the Pledge of Allegence.  Another stupid idea.
