Was the United States Really Founded as a Christian Nation? by Dr. Gregg Frazer on July 1, 2015 To further their political agenda, many on the secular Left misrepresent the religious beliefs of America's founders and their intent in framing the US Constitution. Very few of these men were deists, believing that nature is the only revelation from God and that the Creator is an absentee God who is not present and active in this world. We could count the number of deists on one hand. Furthermore, the framers of the Constitution were not opposed to Christianity, and they did not intend to create a strictly secularist nation characterized by a wall of separation between religion and the public square. Unfortunately, it is easy for evangelical Christians to fall into the same trap as the Left, letting our own political aims distort how we view the religious beliefs of the nation's founders and their intent in framing the Constitution. Some of the founding fathers were Christians—certainly many more than were deists—but that does not mean that the key founders who wielded the most influence were orthodox Christians. Nor does it mean that the framers of the Constitution intended to create a Christian nation. https://answersingenesis.org/culture/america/was-united-states-really-founded-christian-nation/ 1 Share

OLAADEGBU: Who Are Our Founding Fathers? Although there were Christians among the founding fathers, these eight men arguably had the most influence among the founding fathers. All were theistic rationalists. JOHN ADAMS On the committee that drafted the Declaration of Independence, second president of the USA

Thanks-Grieving A.F. BRANCO on November 22, 2023 at 5:00 am Thanksgiving 2023 vs 2019 It is hard not to see the difference between Thanksgiving in 2019 with low inflation, cheap gas, no new wars, low food costs, and an excellent overall economy compared to Thanksgiving 2023. Trump’s Horn-of-Plenty vs. Biden’s Horn of Disaster. This Thanksgiving, I’m giving thanks that Trump has a good chance of being elected back into the White House to clean up Biden and the Democrats’ mess they have perpetrated on the American people. But, having pointed out the obvious, I hope we can ignore the Biden/Democrat disaster for one day and focus on what’s really important: God, Family, and Friends. Cartoon by A.F. Branco ©2023. |
