OMG! This only proves how hilarious a serious debate can be reduced to an absurdity when an obelisk built to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Washington’s birth is offered as counter-proof to the extensive and established body of historical scholarship that our nation was founded on “Christian” principles- not Hindu, not Buddhist, not Atheist, and the ONLY limitations were that there not be a government-preferred national religion and that no religious test be offered for government office.
Have you ever heard of the National Cathedral??????????????????????????????????
This is what happens when those without an in-depth education use the internet to pluck a quotation from her and there, throw in a random quote from Jefferson, and pretend to engage in serious debate in the apparently breathtaking ignorance that President, Jefferson attended Christian religious services in the halls of Congress to say nothing of the religious affiliations, writings, conduct, and declarations of the rest of the signers of the founding documents. What the US Supreme Court has called the “organic mass” of evidence that establishes that this nation is a “Christian” nation.
This is why it should come as no surprise why even to this day many have advocated that immigration to the US should be confined only to those beliefs comport to the great Christian religious heritage of this nation.
