Why? God was good enough to be mentioned in the Declaration of Independence, "When in the Course of human Events, it becomes necessary for one People to dissolve the Political Bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the Powers of the Earth, the separate and equal Station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent Respect to the Opinions of Mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the Separation..." and Iquote further: "... with a firm Reliance on the Protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes, and our sacred Honor."

It seems to me that if it was good enough for the likes of Madison, Jefferson, Monroe and others great legal minds, it ought to be good enough today. With all respect, that's the way it is, so get over it.
