@mastertdi you'll also be able to brush up on how the US Government tried to fight communism by polarizing its culture to be the complete opposite of the USSR's, primarily by injecting religion into everything. Eisenhower formally recognized the "under God" bit that churches were ad-libbing into the pledge, "in god we trust" was being thrown onto currency in the fifties, and our politicians in general stopped approaching different denominations as different voter demographics - like they used to pre WWII - and saw more success using the term "Christian" more openly in an attempt to homogenize our country's religiously diverse population into a single voter demographic.
