"The United States is a Christian-founded nation"

RE: "The United States is a Christian-founded nation"
Here is Chris Rodda's thorough takedown of the Aitken's Bible bullshit perpetuated by that lying fuck David Barton.

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/chris-rodd...98698.html

Quote: Aitken actually asked Congress for quite a bit more than they gave him. In addition to his work being examined by the chaplains, Aitken requested that his Bible "be published under the Authority of Congress,"(10) and that he "be commissioned or otherwise appointed & Authorized to print and vend Editions of the Sacred Scriptures."(11) He also asked Congress to purchase some of his Bibles and distribute them to the states. Congress did not grant any of these other requests. The only help Aitken ever got from Congress was the resolution endorsing the accuracy of his work.
