You’re wrong as always. I wasn’t talking about the Constitution.
the christian church was central to community and culture in america’s beginnings and throughout it’s history. Many of the founders lived devout Christian lives
I know you can’t stand that and need to gaslight and wipe that aspect of America away. I also know why
The Founders came from Protestant backgrounds in a Christian-dominant society, and Christianity influenced American culture and morals. However, they deliberately avoided establishing a national religion, promoting separation of church and state (e.g., no mention of Christianity in the Constitution; Treaty of Tripoli under Adams stating the U.S. “is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion”).
Claims that “virtually all” were devout orthodox Christians often come from evangelical sources and overstate the case. Secular or academic sources emphasize diversity and Enlightenment influence. The truth: a mix, with key leaders far from “devout” in the modern evangelical sense.
This diversity helped forge religious liberty as a cornerstone of the Republic, protecting all faiths (or none) from government interference.
Christian values and ideas significantly influenced the founding of the United States, particularly in its colonial roots, cultural context, and key philosophical underpinnings, though the nation was deliberately established as a secular republic without an official religion.
