give me a site that is not biased with some historical referance and i will look at it.

Modern re-enactors are BUILDING what they claim to be a first century village so they can entice gullible xtian morons to come to the site and spend money on phony horseshit. This is a cottage industry in the middle east and separating stupid xtians from their money is one of the few things that Palestinians and Jews agree on. If you are an example of one of jesus' followers he is welcome to you.
is that so? i have a source that says otherwise and here's some more. "At 20-33 AD the beginning Ministry of Jesus of Nazareth mark of the start of the Common Era. Excavations conducted in the region and remains of pottery prove a continuous settlement during the period 900-600 BCE of Jewish villages and Hellenized Syrians towns. Tzippori, the capital of the Galilee, the largest of these towns was settled until the year 18 BCE. After those years, there was a break in settlement until the year 200 BCE." -http://www.holylandnetwork.com/nazareth/nazareth.htm
"Nazareth was a small and insignificant village during the period of Jesus. While the site was settled during the period 600-900 BCE, it was too small to be included in the list of settlements of the tribe of Zebulon (Joshua 19:10-16), which mentions twelve towns and six villages." -http://www.inisrael.com/news/?p=841

yes, there are many athiestic sites trying to say the founding father's were athiests to try to support seperation of church and state claims. it started with a quote by thomas jefferson taken out of context in the letter he wrote to the Danbury Baptist Association. here's the actual quote "I contemplate with sovereign reverence that act of the whole American people which declared that their legislature should "make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof," thus building a wall of separation between Church & State." they wanted to protect the chrurch from the state, not the state from the church.
Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved home and the war's desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heav'n rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: "In God is our trust."
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
