Freedom of religion, I see. And so then it all hinges on whether atheism or agnosticism count as religious beliefs that should be given same consideration under the constitution. Hence some religious folk being determined that these views should be characterized as an 'absense' or 'lack' of belief rather than being positive beliefs in their own right.
'Under God'... Could that be offensive to some people who are polytheists (believe that there are many different Gods)? I know that a number of people (though not all) who are atheists / agnostics aren't terribly impressed with the 'under god' speel on the US dollar..
