You didn't. But others have. Some current "Christian" organizations think that the US will fail unless it becomes a theocracy and they base their claims on the idea that the Founders made this a Christian nation. Some of them even thing that non-believers should be executed. So perhaps you can see why an insistence on the rule of law regarding this is of concern to me.
Frankly, I don't care what kind of man George Washington was any more than I care what kind of man George Bush is. Their opinions have no place in the decisions that form the law as they are "former" Presidents - past tense in all ways that matter.
