United States Founded on Faith

[Bush92]

The Pilgram's wrote the Mayflower Compact that denied divine right of kings and stated that those in government served with the consent of the governed. John Winthrop said the new colony would be like a "shining city upon a hill." James Whitfield spread the idea of baptism or "re-birth"across the colonies. Reject the Church of England and be born again...reject the King and be your own nation. Washington added "so help me God" to the inaugural oath...with hand on Bible. Lincoln even talked of a "new birth of freedom" in his Gettysburg Address. Always throughout our history God and faith has been a cornerstone. The Christian faith has dominated our history, but no other nation on earth has so embraced religious liberty. Separation of church and state is there and Jefferson talked of a "wall of separation." But how high is that wall? Link below is for reference...skip to 9 minute clip for debate.

I disagree with the girl. The prayer on the wall was not causing her any physical harm and I doubt moral duress. Just don't look at it.

That is debatable whether he said Under God on his oath.

There is Obama, no bible.

Some say George Washington was a RC but that would of been a no no. The only RC President got assassinated JFK. I bet the Protestants had a fit when the capital rotunda was painted with the Apotheosis of Washington on it with Roman Gods.

Where in the Hell did you dig that horseshit up? You missed by over 160 years. Here is the full text of the Mayflower Compact, so you can point out where the divine right of kings was denied or that the government was to serve through the consent of the governed as you falsely claim! DAMN!

Mayflower Compact:
In the name of God, Amen. We whose names are under-written, the loyal subjects of our dread sovereign Lord, King James, by the grace of God, of Great Britain, France, and Ireland King, Defender of the Faith, etc.

Having undertaken, for the glory of God, and advancement of the Christian faith, and honor of our King and Country, a voyage to plant the first colony in the northern parts of Virginia, do by these presents solemnly and mutually, in the presence of God, and one of another, covenant and combine our selves together into a civil body politic, for our better ordering and preservation and furtherance of the ends aforesaid; and by virtue hereof to enact, constitute, and frame such just and equal laws, ordinances, acts, constitutions and offices, from time to time, as shall be thought most meet and convenient for the general good of the Colony, unto which we promise all due submission and obedience. In witness whereof we have hereunder subscribed our names at Cape Cod, the eleventh of November [New Style, November 21], in the year of the reign of our sovereign lord, King James, of England, France, and Ireland, the eighteenth, and of Scotland the fifty-fourth. Anno Dom. 1620.

You're still just a really poor propagandist, and truly Bush league to boot!!

I think the constitution says it all. "We the people....." The only reference to the Christians # 1 God is as a place-holder in time.

Why the Constitution? Our founding document is the DoI, which references the God of Abraham no fewer than two times.

You're not usually worth my time, but I assure you, no Muslim signed the DoI.

Who cares?

Would you like a repeal of the 1st Amendment so we can criminalize all religions except Christianity?

That's was Obama do over because Roberts forgot to say his part right earlier that day. Not sure if Washington was a Roman Catholic or not...never heard that one before. Usually it's the illuminati/mason thing. I have to disagree with your opinion in this regard. Taxpayers built the school. What are the beliefs of the majority of those taxpayers...while still preserving minority rights? I think she was grandstanding just a little bit. I do not see how the wall portrait hurt her...or could distress her in any way. Just don't look at it...or we can cover it until you graduate.

Combine themselves into a " civil body politic for our better ordering and preservation" they leaders will do so for the "general good of the colony" with "due submission and obedience" to the other colonist. Please do not make me have to explain Hobbes v. Locke social contract theory.

Our liberty is deeply tied to our faith.

Yes, the English colonies were based on faith. Would you like to go back to being an English colony? It can be arranged.

Yes, it's tied to everyone being able to have the faith of their own choice, not just "you can choose any religion in any color, as long as it's Christianity"

But Christianity prevails. If our founders were not Christian...would the outcome have been the same?

So you believe that people should be controlled by the government. Weird, I thought you believed in personal freedom.
