In Filth We Trust   Photoshop   Aren’t church and state supposed to be separate in the US? 

I thought so. But our coins and bills say differently; boldy stating “In God We Trust.” 

If we must have a declaration of faith on our money, at least let it be something more original than to God. Hence “In Filth We Trust,” inspired by the Pope of Trash himself, John Waters. If anyone represents our crazy country, it’s him.
