[QUOTE="The Other Side, post: 1019933, member: 17969"] It is amazing how many Christian Conservatives will claim that they are following the "founders" interpretations about GOD, when there is clear evidence from the most notable founders with the exception of John Jay that they disagreed with Christianity completely. There is NO MENTION of the word GOD in the constitution. The Founders believed in a "CREATOR" and that CREATOR wasnt the same GOD that is contained in the bible who intermingled with human beings. Despite all the writings of the founders decrying organized religion, Christian Conservatives still say that this country was "founded" on Christianity when it wasnt. BIgger than that is the claim that "our" rights come from GOD, and yet when this country was founded, not all people had equal rights and it took the [B]COURTS [/B]to give EQUAL rights to all people of color ( including myself ) in this country, and NOT GOD. The founders included slavery into our constitution and the worthless value of human beings of color set at 10 dollars a head and people of color in the constitution were only worth 3/4ths of a person. This still exists in our constitution today and has NOT been removed. Why if we were all given equal rights by GOD, does our constitution conflict with GOD's wishes? Better rethink this position.
