Yes which is why our founders (many of whom were fiercely Christian and fiercely Protestant) built our country on the First Amendment and religious freedom - lest we become embroiled in a papal debacle, or Spanish inquisitions (or even Salem witch trials)...and invite the King Henry VIII’s and Bloody Mary’s of the world to execute whomever they wish...

Our founders did not intend for the secular-progressive socialism as is practiced in countries like Norway today, where “secular Enlightenment” man-centered ideas as embodied in new age ecology movements and climate change dogmas have replaced European Christian traditions.

That is not the narrative we ever hear from the left. You would think the founders were anti-Christian.
