*John Adams wrote, "Our constitution was made only for a moral and
religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any
other." He also wrote a paper called, "American Independence was
Achieved Upon the Principles of Christianity." Write a one page report
on why he felt so strongly that this nation should be founded on
Christian principles and quote from primary sources.



What would be the reaction of the teacher were a student to turn in Adams' denial of the religious view the teacher assumes here, in Adams' exchanges with Jefferson? 

Did any student do that?
