SUIT TO REMOVE "IN GOD WE TRUST" FROM CURRENCY

On November 18, the Cybercast News Service reported that
"The atheist who is fighting to take the phrase "under
God" out of the Pledge of Allegiance filed a lawsuit
late Thursday seeking to prevent the U.S. government
from printing the national motto -- "In God We Trust"
-- on any future coins or paper money."

"The defendants named in the 35-page document include
the members of Congress, Treasury Secretary John Snow,
U.S. Mint Director Henrietta Fore and Thomas Ferguson,
director of the Bureau of Engraving and Printing."
