I don't think Congress supervised the Declaration of Independence though.  It was done before the Constitution and since it was talking about natural rights from the 1700s perspective it made sense to talk about God making us all equal.

Personally I don't care about the writings on the dollar bill or the words in the pledge.

i have no problem with god being on money or buildings but i have a huge problem with anyone being forced to take oaths or pledges to a god.

Luckily no one is I believe.

Even in court there is an alternative to swearing to God if you're dumb enough to take it and potentially seperate yourself from the jury.
