Logic problem: The founding principles of the U.S. and Christianity.
#26
RE: Logic problem: The founding principles of the U.S. and Christianity.
The Founding Fathers were well aware of the abuses and corruption throughout most Christian churches. The also were aware that it's deeply flawed theology. But it was pretty much the only game in town carried over from Europe. All the Christian references in the earliest documents were done for public acceptance and for traditional purposes. Even though the most prominent statesmen despised the religion or at least never took it all that seriously, they felt it was necessary to add words like God to pacify and appease the masses. Probably still true to this day. I know that Obama has been noted to laugh at and criticize Christian beliefs.
You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection.

There are only two mistakes one can make along the road to truth; not going all the way, and not starting.
