Great response to those claiming our constitution is based on Christianity....

1. My response to our system of laws being based on the 10 Comandments

Only stealing and murder are against the law. Even bearing false witness is okay unless you do it under oath. Our laws say nothing about the other seven. You are not required to honor your mother and father. You are free to covet all you want.

2. The opposing team reveres the Founding Fathers

The Founding Fathers wanted, or intended, or meant...they always say.
They say they wanted God in the center of civic life, but they can't say why they fail and failed to make such intentions clear.

For some reason, these writers of our Constitution failed to use the words Christianity or God.
Seems like a great failure of imagination to not expect someone like me to come along and say, "No, you are wrong."

If the USA was founded by as a Christian nation, the founders must have been contra-evangelical.

3. My reponse

Proceed, governor* (Where governor is the name of the person making the claim).

And after each point they make, I tell them why they're wrong.
