Recognizing God?

Tennessee Senate Resolves to Officially Recognize God Oh, there you are Big Guy! Didn't recognize you in drag.

The resolution describes the Constitutional right to freedom of religion and adds, “ … historically, this nation has acknowledged God on our national currency, in our Pledge of Allegiance, in the national motto of ‘In God We Trust’, and in references to God appearing on the nation’s, and this state’s greatest monuments, memorials, and buildings, including the Ten Commandments, which are represented in the United States Supreme Court Building.”

Yeesh. So, apparently, "history" doesn't extend much beyond the past 50 years when the "acknowledgment" of God appeared on all currency (1957), in the national motto (1956), and the Pledge of Allegiance (1954). Furthermore, the above quote makes very little sense (to me). It states "...this nation has acknowledged God...in references to God appearing on the nation’s, and this state’s greatest monuments...including the Ten Commandments..." So, this nation acknowledges God in the X Commandments? First off, isn't that a bit circular? And second, the X Commandments aren't an American document, they're Jewish, dating back to waaaay before this country was founded.
