None of those things are “negotiable” like you want to believe they are.
Christians always find a way to justify shitty behavior.

exactly like saying all muslims are terrorist, its pattern recognition which isnt stereotyping. There are people on the fringes of every group, being raised in a religion doesnt make you religious. Im not a christian but Im sure to a liberal I look like it.Maybe, or maybe we’ve already seen a few more Eric Rudolph’s and just don’t know it yet.

If you're too stupid to disassociate the actions of people from the actual teachings of a religion, you're dumber than we all thought

Like it or not, America was founded on Christian principles, and no amount of liberal opinion can change that.![]()

What is a Christian?
America was founded on the principles of the enlightenment period. Those are straight facts. The founding fathers were a mix of Atheist, Christian, and Deist.

Enlightenment ideas influenced the nation, but its roots in ethics, law, and culture are unmistakably Christian. Of the 13 main Founding Fathers, at least 10 were Christian, showing that America’s moral and cultural roots were overwhelmingly Christian![]()
Christian is a person who looks to Jesus Christ as a guide for how to live, recognizing that no one is perfect, and we all do our best.What is a Christian?
13 seems like odd number, name them.

You're odd.
These are the 13 Founding Fathers I think shaped early America the most. Sure, others helped too, but these guys had the biggest impact.
George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, James Madison, Alexander Hamilton, John Jay, Samuel Adams, Patrick Henry, Roger Sherman, George Mason, John Hancock, Thomas Paine.
I typically see the big 6 mentioned.

In total, this great country was built by about 50–60 key Founding Fathers roughly 238–249 years ago, If you include revolutionaries, diplomats, writers, and early government leaders, back when its future hadn’t yet been compromised.

Washington, Franklin, Jefferson, were really pretty wishy washy. Washington use to thank providence. Not Jesus or god, which is very thiest-ish.
Jefferson did actually create his own Bible, he took a razor blade cutting everything out he thought was bullshit, and was left with 84 pages. I don’t know if I’d consider that Christian. Can you have a Christ without his miracles and resurrection?
Franklin didn’t believe in a personal intervening god, more like a clock maker. Again, not very Christian.

Everyone’s got their pick. You could argue others had a big impact too. Ethan Allen is one. He led Vermont’s revolutionaries and influenced early victories, but he’s rarely listed among the main Founding Fathers. You're probably referring to Dr. Samuel Prescott.I’d argue more than that really. Our history is complicated, and often the things we learned were bullshit but made good stories. Like Paul Revere was actually caught and never made it to Concord.
I don’t remember the guy who did, be I know it was a local doctor.

Though some Founders like Washington, Jefferson, and Franklin weren’t strictly orthodox, the culture they operated in was deeply Christian. Many others, Adams, Samuel Adams, Jay, Patrick Henry, Mason, were devout, and Christian ethics shaped laws, civic life, and public morality.
Our country's foundation reflects the values of the majority. What I'm saying is, the country was overwhelmingly built on Christian principles, even if a few founders leaned toward Deism or personal skepticism.
