I know, but it's been, what, almost 70 years... Why change it now? I don't think anyone from a non-christian religion is offended by it, right? Although, true, reverting to a previous motto would please everyone I suppose...

I mean...what's 70 years of precedence...it's not like Roe v. Wade or anything?

So, you're saying the motto shouldn't be changed? :) As for RvW, as unbelivably as it might seem, I didn't follow that one so I can't take a position because I am not informed enough.

I'm certainly offended on behalf of all non-religious parents. I don't even have kids.
