The government of the United States is not in any sense founded on the Christian religion

LOL! Repeating a phrase from Article XI of the 1796 Treaty of Tripoli will not help you. I said "the Bible" besides, not "the Christian religion" (an undefined phrase). Besides, per history professor Frank Lambert:
"By their actions, the Founding Fathers made clear that their primary concern was religious freedom, not the advancement of a state religion. Individuals, not the government, would define religious faith and practice in the United States. Thus the Founders ensured that in no official sense would America be a Christian Republic. "
IOW, no state religion per the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment. Don't do another Luch, now.
