It is simple, direct, gracefully phrased: it always sounds well - In God We Trust. I don't believe it would sound any better if it were true. And in a measure it is true - half the nation trusts in Him. That half has decided it.

It would be a crime not to venture out, wouldn't it?" -Donald Miller,Through Painted Deserts.
