Because not all of us want that. Like me. Freedom of religion means I don’t have to live under a Jesus statue any more than I have to live under a Mohammad statue.
Well there's plenty of land here so that you don't have to live under anything including statues, bridges and trees.
Doesn’t matter. This country was founded on Judeo-Christian values. Good vs evil. Read the Bible.
Many of the founding fathers actually practiced deism, not theism.
E: for the uneducated, Atheist is not the same as deist.
Deism accepts god but rejects the Bible
Theism accepts both god and the Bible
Atheism rejects both god and Bible
Please know the difference before you try to correct me.
Nope, they were pretty solid Christians and indicated as such in their writings.
Atheist != deist.
Benjamin Franklin, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and a bunch more. They were deist not theists. Like you say, it is evident in their writing.
The way you responded tells me you don’t know what a deist is.
They were Christians sorry lol

Yeah. But they knew the power of the Bible and that’s why the Declaration and Constitution are directly derived from the word.
*I was an atheist not long ago. seriously, if anyone reading this is as stubborn as I was about religion, READ THE BIBLE. And research the history of it.
