Greta Christina is asking everyone who was at, or who wanted to be at, the Reason Rally to do one thing for atheism. One of her suggestions is, mark out 'In God We Trust' on US currency.

Okay! says I, remembering my long-dormant wheresgeorge.com account.

wheresgeorge.com is not interested in religious or political debates. They are sufficiently not interested in such debates to censor what I put in the 'state of the bill being tracked' box. I type 'In God We Trust', they allow the world to see 'the national motto'.

Not pleased, wheresgeorge.com. Not pleased.

So, being the curious kitten that I am, I'd like to know how crossing out the In God We Trust on currency is doing something for atheism. I'm not trying to be snarky or combative or anything, just curious.

Or for that matter, why should folks do things for atheism? I do things because of my beliefs, yes, but I'm not sure I have to do anything for them...
