The students are simply showing the government the error in their logic. If there is going to be a statement like this, it needs to be all inclusive or none at all. Since it is impractical to show every last thing a person may trust in, it makes the most since to completely abolish the statement.

@Allamanda I think you may have misunderstood me. Or maybe I'm misunderstanding you. I do think the student's point is valid. When I say to abolish the statement, I'm referring to the "In God We Trust" statement on our currency.
Yes, rereading my comment, I can see how it could be easily misinterpreted...my bad.
I really like that three of the eight are not dieties at all.

And 3 of them are the same (God, YHWH and Allah)
And trusting in science is basically trusting in ourselves XD
Also Buddha is not a good, is a title that (in the legends) many men had.
