"To travel a thousand li without becoming fatigued, traverse unoccupied terrain. To ensure the objective in an attack, strike positions that are undefended. To be certain of an impregnable defense, secure positions that the enemy will not attack.
Thus when somone excels in attacking, the enemy does not know where to mount his defense; when someone excels at defense, the enemy does not know where to attack. Subtle! Subtle! It approaches the formless. Spiritual! Spiritual! It attains the soundless. Thus he can be the Master of Fate."---Sun Tzu, The Art of War
Tomorrow morning, I will leave early and when I get to the coffee shop, I will be silent and vigilant as I cut in line in front of those busy with their cell phones and indie newspapers and I will have my chocolate chip muffin before they are all gobbled up by the hordes of yuppies that flock in from Marin county!!!!!

GOD doesn't have to be Christian/Jewish/Other. It's up to the individual to define what God means for them.
I certainly don't have "religious" tattoos on my hands, from my perspective.
Wouldn't a Zen practitioner avoid the coffeshop as a pitfall of the ego?
