It affects non-believers and believers in something else than Christianity that God gets plastered over remembrance monuments everywhere as if they never made a worthwhile contribution to their country.

This also makes me think of the numerous law enforcement agencies I've seen wearing flag patches accompanied by the phrase, "FOR GOD AND COUNTRY". Why do we want to make our police officers look like "God warriors"? And what does "God" have to do with law enforcement in a secular society anyway?
Science flies us to the moon and stars. Religion flies us into buildings.

God allowed 200,000 people to die in an earthquake. So what makes you think he cares about YOUR problems?
