In God we trust... no longer?

[Husar]

Alternatively, religious people are "needlessly being asses" by "making a point out of being religious" by printing religious slogans on banknotes.

"In God We Trust" is the official motto of the United States. It was adopted as the nation's motto in 1956 as an alternative or replacement to the unofficial motto of E pluribus unum, which was adopted when the Great Seal of the United States was created and adopted in 1782.[1][2] Many people have expressed objections to its use, and have sought to have the religious reference removed from the currency, claiming that it violates the First Amendment.[3]

Maybe it was a historical development that was wanted and established as part of a democratic process?
I think what Fragony meant though is that you can not be in favor of it being there without being an ass about it like the guy(s) in the source of the OP. Why be all melodramatic about being a 'victim' and having to carry it in your pocket? For atheist it sounds pretty superstitious, as if a christian ghost possessed the bills and could potentially harm their atheism. The guy doesn't even want to spell the word 'god' for some strange reasons, how much more pathetic could he be? If a Christian said the pyramid on it is a demonic symbol and that he doesn't want to wear a demonic symvbol in his pocket, would you also support him? Because these people sound like the "atheist" version of just that. Just read this part for reference:

One plaintiff says his Atheism is "substantially burdened because he is forced to bear on his person a religious statement that causes him to sense his government legitimizing, promoting and reinforcing negative and injurious attitudes not only against Atheists in general, but against him personally."

With this kind of reasoning I might as well claim the guy is possessed by the devil because he does not dare write God's name.
