Satanic Temple threatens lawsuit over Mississippi's 'in God we trust' flag plan
The Satanic Temple has threatened to sue Mississippi over plans to include the phrase “In God We Trust” on its flag.
In a letter addressed to state attorney general Lynn Fitch the Temple argued that not all Mississippians were represented by the phrase, which is the US national motto.
Last week politicians approved proposals to retire the 1894 Mississippi state flag, which had been adorned with the Confederate battle emblem, amid nationwide demonstrations against institutionalised racism.
Under the measure passed last week, governor Tate Reeves compelled state authorities to include the “In God We Trust” message in any new design. A commission is being set up to create that new version.
