According to Nicholas Rathod who wrote an article published by the Center For American Progress stated the following: "In recent years, we have been told by a variety of conservatives that America’s founding fathers established the country under Christian doctrine—that we are a “Christian nation” and should operate accordingly.
This notion—that our country’s roots are explicitly Christian—is both foolish and wrong, for it devalues the Christian faith and disrespects the genius of the founding fathers. Christianity does not need to be endorsed by law or some fantasized re-interpretation of the Constitution in order to have meaning in people’s lives."
And while this is his personal opinion, he went on to write that: The genius of the founding fathers is they understood that Christianity could not only stand on its own but would thrive without being written into the laws and founding documents of the country.
Many of the founding fathers—Washington, Jefferson, Franklin, Madison and Monroe—practiced a faith called Deism. Deism is a philosophical belief in human reason as a reliable means of solving social and political problems. Deists believe in a supreme being who created the universe to operate solely by natural laws—and after creation, is absent from the world.
And because of this absence our Founding Fathers adopted SLAVERY and created a Constitution and Bill of Rights that did not include the African Americans that had been stolen and sold to the wealthy in a NEW LAND as SLAVES...
One could construe that it was the SLAVES that built America not the white man...
It is true that our Founding Fathers created a UNIQUE EXPERIMENT of Democracy and drafted documents around which a great nation was built, but they did so by not treated everyone as equals under MAN'S Law or under GOD'S Law...
