Um, you're overgeneralizing.
SOME of the Founding Fathers were indeed professed and practicing
christians... Just not any of the ones that did the heavy lifting to get
this nation off the ground.
So you need to be more specific, I think, rather than just saying "the
Founding Fathers weren't christian".
Fair enough?
