In God We Trust. Everyone Else Pays Cash.

While I don't see the harm in putting the phrase on our money, I find it even more difficult to justify leaving it on.

A large segment of the population places more trust in science or logic than in a supernatural being. If we trust that much in God, why all the meat inspectors and traffic lights? Does our trust in the divine have limits?

Regardless of what you believe, it is a violation of church/state separation. Whether it harms anyone is debateable. I would remove it, simply because it implies state-sponsored religion.
