>The 'In God We Trust' is a reference to the beliefs of the founding fathers of the United States (Christian). It is written in the English language the Constition, Declaration of Independence, and other primary documents of the United States were written in (just threw that fact in for anyone else who needed a reason to be offended).

The Dutch gulden (our currency till we got the euro) had on its side a similar reference to God. That was changed in the seventies, if I remember well. Isn't it a bit old fashioned, even in the States, to state such a thing on your website? Isn't it something that shows Conservatism and Religeousness, rather than The American Spirit?
