So... What do they use to pay for stuff?

Lawsuit seeks to block 'In God We Trust' engraving

The nation's largest group of atheists and agnostics filed a lawsuit Tuesday seeking to block an architect from engraving "In God We Trust" and the Pledge of Allegiance at the Capitol Visitor Center in Washington. The Madison-based Freedom From Religion Foundation's lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court in western Wisconsin, claims the taxpayer-funded engravings would be an unconstitutional endorsement of religion.

The House and Senate passed identical resolutions this month directing the Architect of the Capitol to engrave "In God We Trust" and the pledge in prominent places at the entrance for 3 million tourists who visit the Capitol each year.

The OFFICIAL national motto, "In God We Trust," is printed on all our currency. Why aren't these clowns going after that, too? More people see it on our money every day than will ever see it at the Capitol Visitor Center. I just cannot figure these people out.
