Was America founded on Christian beliefs?

[RiverRat1]

Some say the "founding fathers" were not Christian (or religious).

Is there any evidence America was not founded on Christian beliefs?

[flywise]

No, to answer your question.
America was absolutely founded on Christian principles by Christians because God sent his people here to create exactly what he intended then to. Because of those beliefs and that guidance America surpassed every other nation on earth in a very few years even though most other societies had been around thousands of years

[trophy8]

Yes.


Guess you’re back to posting random crap.

Well, that’s a question that I’ve pondered a time or two. They probably thought they were, but they might not have been very good at it. Owning people doesn’t seem Christian like, neither does mass murdering of the native tribes. Greed and avarice cloaked in Christianity ? Maybe the answer is above my pay grade.

You can exhibit Christian principles without being a Christian.

(Owning slaves doesn’t seem Christian)
You sure about that?

Slaves, obey your earthly masters with respect and fear, and with sincerity of heart, just as you would obey Christ.
- Ephesians 6:5

(Neither does mass murder of native tribes)
Hum, I’m pretty sure those native tribes did plenty of killing themselves

America was founded upon religious freedom with a judeo Christian ethic.

The funding fathers were a mix of Christian and Diest.

The Bible is sometimes like the Constitution.

They are often quoted but on occasion ignoring some possible unpleasant points.

[Bud]

Without a doubt. Read the constitution.

Well considering the white man stole every bit of land we own today and screwed over the people who were here originally and had black people farm it and harvest the crops I'm gonna say no Jesus wasn't really a big part of it. Did they pray to Jesus every night before bed and before every meal? Yeah probably but I highly doubt they ever met him.

This country was founded on violence and atrocities of every kind. Just like most countries were. I'm sure some of it if not most of it had to do with the fact that the people that were being done dirty were looked at as uncivilized or savages. Therefore they were less than human to the "Christians" who were doing these things.

More people have been butchered in the name of religion and greed than there ever were saved. I'd bet money on it.

Don't none of it matter now. People of every ethnicity are taking over the United States. There's people being removed from their homes by these people as we speak. So it looks like we've come full circle. Gonna have to start killin brown people again pretty soon or they'll take this land that we worked hard to steal in the first place. That's not the most polite or politically correct way to say it but it doesn't make it any less true. All this talk of days gone by don't mean jack diddly ****. Better start worrying about current day events.

If our founding fathers knew how things were gonna turn out they'd have closed off the borders on all sides and picked their own cottin. We've come to a point where we're more worried about hurting someones feelings than our own well being. That's for sure not what this country was founded on. Christian or not.

Wow! You’re so wrong.

We need to stand together as Americans. The color of one’s skins has nothing to do with what’s going on. Vote to close the border and every brown person I know would support that.

I agree with this. I just recall a while back quite a few people saying founding fathers were not Christian or religious at all.

[okrattler]

Wow! You’re so wrong.

We need to stand together as Americans and no color means

**** when it comes to your values.

Yeah tell that to the people getting booted out of their homes by foreigners in Colorado. Coming to a town near you. I'm sure you'll come together alright. Come together and shoot some Venezuelans. Which is exactly right. It's gonna be a group effort.

[RiverRat1]

Stay on topic guys.

Watch this. Sums it up pretty good IMO.
