Always Faithful
Edit: Until that time, I provide this link to show you my point, it's a joint prayer the signers agreed to as a credo:I just provided one above. Take a speedreading course. It is only a semester single credit, but it will change your life in comprehension unless you're not here to debate, but to cram some false narrative down a Republican throat or two..I'm going to add a list of the signers for your benefit, and if you can tell me which one or ones were not believers in God, Christ, or the Protestant/Colonial churches, please enlighten us with your own information of their absence of faith, won't you? My teachings, though, were pretty specific. If they weren't Christians there, that was not known to the early churches of the 13 colonies, all of which were believers in Christ, although they accepted as citizens people of all faiths and POVs. The signers were believed to be Protestants, and whatever, they prayed together to God's providence to help them oversee this new nation dedicated to the principles of freedom and brotherhood throughout the land, regardless of religion.Divide that 5% by two, I'm pretty sure the Constitution was written by men, who are a bit less than 50% of the population in years when there are no wars going on.Proof of God is reflected in a constitution that covers less than 5% of the people on earth today (not even referencing those in the past)?OK. But I'm pretty certain you ain't gonna like my opinion nor the way I express it:

there is no mention of the christian bible or the false messiah religion found anywhere in any gov't document of the united states - an endorsement by the theists of an Almighty is purely secular.
"...In times of impending calamity and distress; when the liberties of America are imminently endangered by the secret machinations and open assaults of an insidious and vindictive administration, it becomes the indispensable duty of these hitherto free and happy colonies, with true penitence of heart, and the most reverent devotion, publicly to acknowledge the over ruling providence of God; to confess and deplore our offenses against him; and to supplicate his interposition for averting the threatened danger, and prospering our strenuous efforts in the cause of freedom, virtue, and posterity..."
