I can tell you one thing for sure. I didnt say So Help Me God at the end of my Oath.
Our founding fathers may or may not have believed in god or the Judeo-Christian god. we can never really know what someone 300 years ago really believed, especially when in those times you didnt specifically say god didnt exist. they stoned people just for believing in Satan.
If this country was founded on religious beliefs, than why did we exclude a recognized religion for our country. when this country was founded, it was not religious. Ourr founding fathers themselves made sure that this country was not religious. The Treaty of Tripoli made mention that this is not a Christian Nation. Forgive me for not knowing the president which said that, but the pres did say that.
The tree of liberty must be refreshed with the blood of tyrants and patriots from time to time. Yes, i know the constitution is set up to be destroyed if its necessary. but that doesnt necessarily mean it will be a religious constitution to take its place.
In the 1950s and the Red Scare we added in God We Trust to our money, not before. We changed our pledge of Allegiance to Under God. because of the Soviet threat and the fact many people believed them to all be Atheist our country became more religious. but this country was not founded on a specific religion.
I will be glad to continue this, with some actual quotes from our founding fathers later but at the moment, i'm somewhat busy. I'm trying to set up my Xbox Live account.
