    As an atheist, I don't trust in God. I guess it should be labeled 'in God they trust' or something :S

    No, but only because it's been there since the start. If they wanted to add something like that to the U.S currency, I would say no.

    I think it really doesn't matter what is on the currency.

    Only if you consider the "start" to be 1864 (the first coin bearing the motto), or 1956 (when the motto was adopted into practice as the official national motto), well, O.K.

    In fact, the use on coins has been hotly debated for some time. A bit of it, from Wiki:

    Someone else said something about the notion of keeping state matters state matters, and religious matters religious matters....combing my mind...can't quite recall....
