huff and puff post as some authority on Christianity? Of course this nation was not founded upon the "Religion" of Christianity.....it was founded upon the principles established under Blackstone who used the principles established under the Judeo Christian Philosophy. Establishing a STATE RELIGION would be contrary to that philosophy..as Christianity is based upon Choice not a State Mandate. Thus the 1st amendment free exercise and anti establishment clause existence where BIG BROTHER is forbidden from making any law that would deny FREE EXERCISE.
Religion is a personal choice.....but....there is nothing illegal with any person (Christian or otherwise) serving within the US government and retaining his/her personal rights of free speech. The very reason that Religion, Speech, and Press are addressed in the same bill of rights act.
No where does Adams declare that the United States is not a Christian Nation. Have you ever attempted to read and comprehend English within its context and content message? Quote: Your own evidence, "The GOVERNMENT of the UNITED STATES...is not.....(the government dumbasses) in any sense, is not founded upon THE RELIGION of CHRISTIANITY." -- John Adams.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comment...aws_of_England Notice the quote even from Wikipedia...….Blackstone is referenced when asked about the FRAMING of the United States Constitution.
That Framework. 1. The rights of persons 2. the rights of things 3. of private wrongs 4. of public wrongs. Guess where this reference of these 4 basic tenets of US LAW came from? The Judeo Christian Philosophies....Blackstone argued that English Common Law was predicated upon God's Law.

“If we have to have a choice between being dead and pitied, and being alive with a bad image, we’d rather be alive and have the bad image.”
— Golda Meir
Zionism is the movement for the self-determination and statehood for the Jewish people in their ancestral homeland, the land of Israel.
“If Hamas put down their weapons, there would be no more violence. If the Jews put down their weapons, there would be no Israel."

Yeah......presenting Christianity as a CHOICE is a new tactic. "And if it seems to you to serve the Lord is evil, CHOOSE FOR YOURSELVES WHOM YOU WILL SERVE, whether the gods that your fathers served that were on the other side of the river, or the gods of Amorites in whose land you dwell (pagan Idols). But as for me and my house....we shall serve the Lord." -- Joshua 24:15
Correct me if I am wrong. I simply presented history actual. Its you that are attempting to make others "adhere" to your secular opinions. What a hypocrite. What? You don't accept the 1st amendment free exercise clause where freedom "of" religion is guaranteed not freedom "from" religion? Hell......you even misquoted the evidence that you presented. Again....show me where John Adams says, "The US is not a Christian Nation" as you pretended it said. Who started this thread? A Christian or a hypocrite?

You want to establish state religion for no other reason than to save Christianity from the free market of ideas that is clearly killing it.
