politcally correct? or incorrect?

I'm not sure that this is an example of political correctness or incorrectness, at least not as I understand the terms.

You and me both

It's politically correct to approve and defend the presence of the word God in our national motto. It's politically incorrect to be an atheist and reject the presence of the word God in our national motto.

Yeah, we do many things to please the majority but we don't call that political correctness.

I disagree with this. "Politically Correct" is not synonimous with "popular". This is the Bill Maher fallacy. He always seemed to conflate being politically incorrect with saying something unpopular or controversial.

Political Correctness is a certifiably left-wing phenomenon. The term gained widespread use on college campuses among conservatives who were being made the targets of speech codes and the like. Because the Leftist view is that all religion (and even the very concept of God itself) is intrinsically oppressive and reactionary, the politically correct position, as the term has always been understood, would be to remove any mention of God from everything, eveywhere.
