On this post you are absolutely correct. I read Supreme Court cases with the same accuracy that you just read my (high-speed) posting grammar. LOL.

However, posting as Congressman Billybob I made a different error. It should have been "us'ns" rather than "us" perhaps. The grammar of bad grammar is not well established.

Billybob / John

Most of the founders actually were quite dismissive of Roman Catholic doctrine. This is often misinterpreted to be a disbelief in Christianity. Jefferson and Franklin were Christians but did not really affiliate with any denomination.

As for the rest, Madison, Washington, Sam and John Adams, Hamilton, etc. They were all affiliated with Christian denominations.
