<< M E Bradford did the definitive work on the founders, reading all of the extant writings of all the Signers of the Constitution as well as the 250 or so men who ratified the document. Only five, maybe seven of these men can be called anything but conventional Christians of that time....However, the founders did wisely decide and intend to keep the spheres of religion and government from being combined. But there wasn't the hostility to religion that marks the last 40 years of American law. >> Freddy, I didn't say the founding founders were not Christians. I said that it was not their intention to form a Judeo-Christian government,as your writer states at the end. Read my statement. You have a perception problem. "They have publicly stated that they want to get this country back to it's "Judeo-Christian roots as our founders had intended". You are well-read enough to know that our founders did not intend that." By the way, who decides who wrote the definitive works? Why it's Freddy. How does he know? Because those are the ones he read.
