Where you are so brainwashed is your continued insistence that the Founding Fathers were gung ho on Freedom of Religion WITHIN our government and it's laws. They were not all atheists but some were very leary of religion's influence on government and said so.
They wanted freedom OF religion for individuals and freedom FROM religion being imposed by the government.
That is EXACTLY why they left Europe. The government was dictating their religious expression. They wanted freedom to worship as they saw fit....not as the government dictates.
That belief in separation between church and state was a foundation of our Constitution and the very reason the Establishment Clause was written into it.
Many of the Founding Fathers were very fearful of organized religion's influence on government and there are documents written by some in the Library of Congress I have cited numerous times proving that fact.
The continued notion that this country was founded on Christianity is patently false. Are there references to God and some basic religious based tenants like man being created mentioned....yes.
But those can be true of EVERY religion in the history of mankind....not just Christianity.
Zeus was a god and created men. Does that mean they believed in Zeus dictating government policy??
The word "Christianity" is NEVER mentioned one time.
The word "Jesus" is NEVER mentioned one time.
The word "Bible" is NEVER mentioned one time.
The "Ten Commandments" are NEVER referenced.
Not one thing is mentioned specific to the belief in Christianity...NADA, ZIP.
Facts are facts Jack.
"The text of the U.S. Constitution makes no mention of God, Jesus Christ, or Christianity. In fact, it bends over backwards to establish freedom of religion and the separation of church and state."
