When we discuss Religion and the role it was to play in the new Country, sometimes it is important to note what the CONSTITUTION DOES NOT SAY THAT CAN GIVE US ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT WHAT THE DRAFTERS OF THE DOCUMENT HAD IN MIND.
Any "JUDGE" or "LEGAL EXPERT" commenting on the U.S. BEING FOUNDED UPON THE PRINCIPLES OF CHRISTIANITY HAS TWO PROBLEMS:
#1- Which branch of Christianity? For Centuries Christianity has split into many DIFFERENT BRANCHES/DENOMINATIONS THAT ADOPTED;
- Different forms of Worship.
- Alternate Views of Biblical Interpretation.
- Varying Codes of Proper Moral Behavior.
...and for our purposes, to what extent the STATE/CIVIL GOVERNMENT would ALLOW CERTAIN CHRISTIAN RELIGIOUS PRINCIPLES TO DICTATE LEGAL PRECEDENT.
We know from History that WARS AND CONFLICTS ACROSS THE GLOBE OFTEN STEMMED FROM RELIGIOUS BIGOTRY AND HYPOCRISY, WHICH OFTEN LED TO CIVIL GOVERNMENTS SELECTING A "FAITH FOR ALL."
- CATHOLICISM
- CHURCH OF ENGLAND.
- EASTERN ORTHODOX.
- CERTAIN FAITHS FORMED FROM THE
PROTESTANT REFORMATION.
Are all examples of Christian Denominations that were chosen
to be THE ONE TRUE SET OF DOCTRINES/BELIEFS that were
forced upon a Civil Population by the power of the State.
Now let us look at the U.S. CONSTITUTION, which Branch of CHRISTIANITY
did the AUTHORS OF THE DOCUMENT CHOOSE?
ODDLY ENOUGH, NONE AT ALL.
How do we know this? Let's again read the Document, and for now, we will set aside
WHAT IS SAID IN ARTICLE 6, AND THE FIRST AMENDMENT.
If the Founders truly believed that some form of CHRISTIANITY, or any Faith for that matter, should be the guide to GOVERN, LEGISLATE, OR AJUDICATE proper LEGAL PRINCIPLES BINDING ON ALL AMERICANS, they did it in a strange manner.
NOWHERE IN THE U.S. CONSTITUTION DO WE FIND THE FOLLOWING MENTIONED:
- God.
- Jesus.
- Christian or Christianity.
- Prayer.
- Bible.
HOW CAN YOU POSSIBLY DERIVE A CHRISTIAN INTENT FOR FORMING A LEGAL SYSTEM
WITHOUT MENTIONING CHRISTIANITY, OR ANY PART OF THE CHRISTIAN BIBLE?
