Blogger's latest crusade: 'In Satan We Trust' plaques at city halls

Atheist blogger Chaz Stevens is asking permission to display a banner with the motto: "In Satan We Trust" in retaliation to Mayor Joy Cooper's push for a "In God We Trust" plaque in commission chambers at City Hall.

If Mayor Joy Cooper has her way, the words "In God We Trust" will be mounted above the dais in commission chambers at City Hall.

So now atheist blogger Chaz Stevens wants equal time. He is asking permission to display a banner with the motto: "In Satan We Trust."

Hallandale's mayor said she has no plans to give up the push for an "In God We Trust" plaque at City Hall.

"It's our national motto," Cooper said. "It sends a loud message that we're all united."
