Whether the founding fathers were christians or hindus is not relevant. You don't look at the walls of buildings to determine the founding fathers' views of gov't and religion, you read the constitution and bill of rights which makes it perfectly clear that they intended this country to be a haven for freedom of religious practice. But it does me no injury for my neighbor to say there are twenty gods or no god. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg. -- Thomas Jefferson I have no argument against this. I agree. But it is not a government founded on secularism and freedom from religion. Had the population of the colonies been from the middle east and Islamic we would all probably be living under Shirria Law. But they weren't. Our founding fathers were overwhelmingly Christians of various denominations and our laws and culture reflected that. ************************************** Get a sneak peak of the all-new AOL at http://discover.aol.com/memed/aolcom30tour
