My meaning is misconstrued, I meant the government, not the people running it. I just don't think there should be "In God we trust" written on money, nor swearing on a bible, koran or whatever, which probably means absolutely nothing to an atheist. Somehow if we see reference to god on official practices or documents I believe that we are being influenced, just not so free...
