Dude,
The Charter of Maryland was the Magna Carta with the front cover ripped off and replaced with the Charter of Maryland.
Go read it yourself, or you can google it and find the liberal perspective.
I believe you will find God mentioned a dozen times.
Go read it and let me know whether I am right or Wong.
The Charter of Maryland dates back to colonial times, when Maryland was established as a Catholic colony in the 1600s. It dates back to a time when it was common for jurisdictions to have official religions. This practice was explicitly outlawed under the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, mainly because the United States of America wouldn't have lasted more than 24 hours as an independent country if the Federal government had to pick one Christian faction above the others as the official state religion.
Am I missing something here?
