I have been hearing a lot from my Christian family members about the tragic possibility of losing the United States and the founding principles as if it's some idol or sacred text. So, I guess I'm frustrated about that aspect, the "God/Christian country" pedestal they seem to have. I'm not saying it'll be a blast for the country to split up and be at war(if that'll even happen) but it's not perfect, never been perfect.

Ironically, those that scream the loudest about the "founding principles" are the least likely to actually support them.  What they mean by "freedom" is that white, Christians (and mostly just men) get to dictate everything.
Why is it so?
