Post Help...I'm going after my local politicians

I need references on the following:

insertion of "under god" into the pledge of allegiance

addition of "in god we trust" to coinage & currency(I have some 1929 silver certs. for proof)

switch of national motto

I'm familiar with all of these, I just lack verifiable sources. It's sort of obvious with the silver certs, but I need to cover my ass.

They are also trying to raise tha acreage a church can own from 15 to 150 acres. Any ideas on this one? They are talking about raising taxes right now. They will have to raise them even more if they do that.

What state is this in, and do you have a cite? There was something like that in Virginia, in a thread that has been archived.
