So many people use their debit and credit cards for everything nowadays anyway, I am surprised someone even noticed a mistake that was on real physical money.

I agree with this. They should take it off in my opinion.

well you better hope they trust in God since our inalienable rights are derived from Judeao-Christain Principles/Laws/roots, some that date back several thousand years

I agree, any mistakes made on coins makes them valuable down the road.  My daughter got one of the new dollars and the stamp is on the side of the coin, so be sure to check there before thinking you got one of the valuable coins.

My spawnlings got a couple of the new coins sent to them in Canada.  I noticed the printing around the thin edge, as well.  Definitely check carefully before rushing off to the nearest dealer.  It could save you some embarassement!

And we all know that Judeo-Christian Principles/Laws/Roots derive directly from God.

I did not claim I did not believe in a god source for all creation, but my beliefs are not Judeo-Christian, nor do I owe my liberty to Judeo Christianity.... you may disagree, that is fine with me, but I find this statement above slightly odd. Your beliefs are yours, I have never understood projecting one's spiritual beliefs on to others.
