Nope. I think we should just take it off money all together. It wasn't there originally anyway.
"Before the days of credit and debit cards, one used to see signs similar to "In God we trust, all others pay cash" in diners, service stations, food stores, and many other establishments, obviously playing on the use of the motto "In God We Trust" that is on our coins and paper currency. It may come as a surprise to many younger and even not so young persons that this was not always so, that the regular use of "In God We Trust" on US coins did not begin until 1908, "In God We Trust" was not made an official motto of the United States until 1956, and the motto did not appear on paper money until 1957. The history of the choice of "In God We Trust" as an official motto of the United States and the practice of placing "In God We Trust" on coins and bills is a tale of historical revisionism, perfidy by our elected representatives and appointed officials, and ecclesiastical opportunism whose results have tended to eat away at the foundations of our liberties and threaten the very idea of the separation of church and state."
"In contrast to the Declaration of Independence, and quite deliberately, the Constitution of the United States contains not a single reference to a deity or to divine inspiration. This was, of course, due to the genius of the founding fathers who saw in Europe and elsewhere the strife that had been engendered by the adoption of official religions in nearly all Old World countries."

Yeah, that Bill of Rights with that bit about religious freedom is just plain silly. So are religions that preach loving people and that judgement belongs to God alone. Totally ridiculous, both of 'em.

No. The currency should stay the same, however our flag should be changed to reflect "IN GOD WE TRUST" and if you don't like it, leave NOW!!!

I don't think we should replace it with that, but I don't think that "In God We Trust" should be taken off.

Yes, as it is unfair to many people who don't believe in a god or who has a different religion.
