@risingfromthered: Ben Franklin wasn’t a president. He wasn’t a churchgoer. And he definitely wasn’t the poster child for a Christian nation. He doubted the Bible at 15, took naked “air baths,” and helped build the public institutions some lawmakers want to tear down today. Founding father? Yes. Evangelical icon? Not even close. #FoundingMyth #BenFranklin #ChristianNationalism #DeconstructingHistory #USHistory #SeparationOfChurchAndState #FoundingFathers #ReligiousFreedom #HistoryMatters #RisingFromTheRed #TikTokHistory #CivicLiteracy #DidYouKnow #FunHistoryFacts #deconstruction@Dan McClellan @The New Evangelicals @Straight White American Jesus @Blair Imani Smarter in Seconds

they didn't install Christianity in the constitution , just the opposite Division between church and state.

On the other hand if how secular some of the founders were was known widely at the time they may have been rejected.

Jefferson was a deist as well. Removed all miracles from the New Testament and published The Jefferson Bible.

Thomas O'Pray :
Though not religious, he instructed that his fortune should go into a fund to help churches, synagogues, and mosques after his death. He supported religious freedom and freedom from religion.

A majority of the founding fathers were deists. George Washington was a free mason.

this country was not founded on religion at all and all religions can take their little beliefs and keep them to their damn selves!

John Stewart said it best if Benjamin Franklin were alive today, he would be a 90 pound crack addict hanging out at the Port Authority in New York City

Haha! Our founders mistrusted the church. That’s why there’s a separation of church and state. Remember the Pope gave permission for wars and slaves
