Well i'm certainly not going to convince any fundamentalists of anything other than what they already believe on faith.

But for those interested in the secular aspects of the founding of our nation here's a pretty good article:

zolatimes.com

It makes the case that the separation between church and state has been eroding since our founding, not the other way around as many would have us believe.

re:"have said again and again that some of the patriots were deists. MANY MORE WERE CHRISTIANS."

But almost all, (at least the founders) were freemasons (or like Jefferson, sympathetic to freemasonry).

How many of the "Christians" were Unitarians?
