If I wrote this post today, I probably would not phrase the "one nation under God" statements the same. That kind of runs like BAAL. The move to have In God We Trust on money was a Christian effort, for reverence of God as in the One True God Christians claim. Although I don't like that the same person also proposed that all seeing eye. See:

History of 'In God We Trust'

The history of use of the term "Under God" has varied, but use of it in things like the pledge while not initiated by a group I consider Christian (Knights of Columbus), it was put over the top by a Christian minister. See:

Addition of the words "under God"

Abraham Lincoln who is where it stemmed from grew up Baptist. So I feel it's safe to say the use of those terms in America is towards the Christian God.

Why the Term “African-American” is Un-American When Used by American Natives
