@davidrstarr You don't think atheists have sacrificed their lives for this nation as well? Foolish to think a religion gives a country freedom. There is no mention of any 'god' in the Constitution.
@Logixmaster There is no mention of any 'god' in the Constitution.
Correct. Although the Constitution was founded largely on the Bible (Please look up Sir Blackstone), our Christian founding fathers realized that the very founding of America was in part, because of religious oppression in Europe. Consequently, our Constitution defends everyone;s freedom of conscience via the First Amendment. We were not founded as a Theocracy. Were were founded as a Republic,
@Logixmaster Foolish to think a religion gives a country freedom.
It WAS the tenets and followers of Jesus that gave birth to America. The shot heard round the world fired at Lexington Green was Pastor Jonas Clark and his congregation in defiance of the tyranny of Great Britian. Look it up. One Nation Under God was preached by Pastor George Whitfield as he rallied the 13 colonies to the advent of the American Revolution. Read the Declaratiob of Independence and the Mayflower Compact.

The American Revolution was a Christian movement. The majority of the founding fathers were Christians (I PMed you a tiny collection of their quotes). There is absoutely no evidence of atheism playing any role in the founding of America.
@Logixmaster who were these "Christians". Most of the founding fathers I know of weren't. Deism /= Christianity.
The documented evidence is so extensive that it requires numerous books to capture. It certainly cannot be captured here in a 500 word text message. However, I have sent a list of founding father quotes (together with literature references to your inbox). Here you will see that the majority of the signers of the Declaration and the Constitution worshipped Jesus.
@supersmash43 that's why we have to oppose its infringement on our rights.
It was the very wisdom of our Christian forefathers that fought for you to have freedom of conscience via the First Amendment to the Constitution. Just like Jesus, they gave their blood and lives for your freedom (one for natural freedom the other for divine freedom)
@Logixmaster Religion ignores the freedoms in the Constitution.
Christianity and the Bible gave rise to the Constitution. Rights do not come from the Constitution. Rights come from Jehovah (Jesus) which is delineated in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. I also suggest you look up the 1789 Thanksgiving Proclamation made by George Washington which is especially relevant to this holiday.
We can only HOPE that god loses ground in this country. There are so many crazies because of religion. Congress should not have an agenda to promote religion... that is wrong.

We are NOT a Christian nation. We are a nation of many cultures, religions, and beliefs. That is what makes us unique. That is what makes us awesome.
A secular America=A strong America.
I would give my life to ensure it stays this way.

It was Crhistians that gave their vblood so you could believe as you wish. It is called the First Amendment that was given you by their blood.

My father fought in WW11. His favorite quote (amd I am sure you have heard it) is "I never met an atheist in a fox hole".

Funny how religion opposes freedom of speech and our rights from the Declaration of Independence. Theocracy isn't a good idea.

@shiloh886 The Declaration of Independence has no standing in American law. Morals existed long before Christianity and Judaism developed.
