New US dollar coins

I recently came across a photo of the new US dollar coin on FB and the person who shared it said she won't accept the coin because "In God we trust" is not on the main face anymore but is instead engraved on the side of the coin. I became peeved when I saw one person after the other supporting her statement and even saying they wanted to boycott the coin. I left a comment saying America is a melting pot of peoples who claim various faiths and non-faiths, it is insulting to see people up in arms over a narrow statement being put on currency which is something everyone uses.

What do you think?
