I never said anything different from what you just said. The federal government is not Christian, or religious. But that fact was never intended by the Founders as the first shot in a war to extirpate Christianity from North America, which is precisely how the ACLU sees it.

In regards to your statements that The Lord Christ Jesus did not create nor was in existence when the universe was created,..I have a few questions.

1) Since you are quite certain on this point of theology, it must be obvious that you have performed some rigorous word studies in Scripture and can relate Scriptural references as to why the Person, known to us today as The Lord Christ Jesus, didn't create, nor was around until His incarnation and miraculous birth in Nazereth, or perhaps His kicking in the womb of Mary. Why do you hold this position?

2) Since you have studied this issue, you are also well aware that many Christians have also studied the topic in word studies and base many of their positions in regards to the topic on the explicit names used for Christ in Scripture. Likewise, as you portend to share Christian spirit, not only would you seek to share your understanding, but a burning desire will swell within you to explain to all why certain well studied theologic positions describing Christ as the Creator are so mistaken. Why haven't you offered to give this immediate lesson rather than argue the point in accusatory fashion?
