And I am saying it did play a role and the issues of today were not around at the time of the framing of the constitution.
People can beat this all they want but what is the discussion about at this point? Does Connie disagree that the US did not have Christianity as its official religion? Do you and others disagree the character and policies of this country are STRONGLY influenced by Christianity?
What is the discussion about? To me it just seems like personal attacks, sometimes veiled, over and over without point. The truth of the matter is quite a few people are in this thread, on each and every side, knowing nothing about the topics of history nor religion.
