Christian Nation?

Despite Cromwell's repeated attempts at establishing a purely secular republic government, they failed and in 1660 the Christian monarchy was restored, and that is the government which still stands today and the one from which America was established which then in 1776 declared independence from Britain. Before this, however, the USA was founded by the British and hence Christian monarchy.

Um, so what? The Constitution establishes a secular government based on Enlightenment principles.
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
Science is not a subject, but a method.
