A Florida activist wants to mess with Texas and SB 797, the state's controversial new law requiring schools to display do nated “In God We Trust” posters. Chaz Stevens, an advocate for the separation of church and state, is donating signs to Lone Star State public schools with "In God We Trust" written in Arabic. Best known for erecting Festivus poles in the Florida State Capitol to counter nativity scenes, Stevens' poster campaign is intended to tweak Texas' Republican leaders for requiring public schools to display posters emblazoned with the motto. According to S.B. 797, the posters must have the phrase "In God We Trust" accompanied by an American flag directly underneath the words in the center of the sign.
