I'm only referring to Christians.
Atheists, Agnostics, Muslims, Jews, Hindus, Buddhism ( philosophy ) and other faiths are honourable and respectable.

Lucid Interceptor, I like your idea.

Don't worry, I'm not a Muslim. I'm a Jewish.

Its a shame that the education system is turning out kids that think America isn't built upon Christianity...taking God outta school is working for the athiests...
But why do they have to lie and change context.
I just came across this website which covers a whole bunch of founding fathers and early presidents and people of importance. it will open your eyes.
for example did you know that Harvard was founded on Christianity. Students had to know latin and greek so they could study scripture.
For the forst 100 years, %50 of all Harvard graduautes were pastors!
---------------
The U.S. is definitly , in an astoundingly comprehensive manner, founded and built with and by Christians values and principals.
Why the heck do you think it became the most powerfull and prosperous nation on earth?
you had God at your back.
and now, America is showing rejection of God.... and look whats happening.
can you connect the dots?
check out the web site, turn your speakers down, it has annoying music, but hey, most bam,bam wham rock and role hurts the ears as well.---no big thing.

Have you ever noticed that those who oppose Christians are full of hate, and the true Christians usually are not?

Well, in the sense that it would be truer to the Consitution and Bill of Rights, yes. Some Christians are always trying to change America into a "Christian nation." It never has been and never will. Many of the founding fathers were not Christians. Instead they were Deists. For example, Thomas Jefferson said in the The Virginia Act For Establishing Religious Freedom, "Be it therefore enacted by the General Assembly, That no man shall be compelled to frequent or support any religious worship, place, or ministry whatsoever, nor shall be enforced, restrained, molested, or burdened in his body or goods, nor shall otherwise suffer on account of his religious opinions or belief; but that all men shall be free to profess, and by argument to maintain, their opinions in matters of religion, and that the same shall in nowise diminish, enlarge, or affect their civil capacities. " Thomas Paine wrote, "I do not believe in the creed professed by the Jewish church, by the Roman church, by the Greek church, by the Turkish church, by the Protestant church, nor by any church that I know of...Each of those churches accuse the other of unbelief; and for my own part, I disbelieve them all." And James Madison said, ""Religious bondage shackles and debilitates the mind and unfits it for every noble enterprise."

That is the dumbest question I ever heard. Sorry but the truth is USA was founded on Christian principals despite what some new groups are trying to say. You might have a country called America but I doubt you would have the same place without the influence. Might have something more like greek society before Christianity influence it or the world might still all be in europe instead of across the ocean.

America without "Americans" would turn out to be True America.
Better still, why not get away with the whole stupid "America" name and call it by the name the Norsemen gave it: Vinland...... meaning "Plain Country".

This is Islamist Christian-hate propaganda, and very weak propaganda at that. You cant even define what "true America" is or why its better without only Christians. Go back to medina and re-write it.

You may have been born into Jewish society but your heart isn't Jewish. It has no desire to know and glorify God....
