The only problem here is that nearly everything that's put in place of "God" will 'offend' someone. The only way not to offend anyone, is to put nothing in. But if exclusion is the only way, then that contradicts the second part of "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof". You do one thing, someone gets offended. You do the other, and the Constitution gets offended. Perhaps something's wrong in the interpretation of the First Amendment somewhere..

So, in other words, the only reasonable way to handel this is for you to be allowed to force your religion on others?
Uhh-huhh, right.

The two phrases "allowed religion" and "enforced religion" are rather different. We're talking about the former, not the later.
