Todd DuBord has done some good work, and regardless of the typical WND hype, he points out some legitimate problems.
WND probably wouldn’t like a truly unbiased exhibit, either, detailing the true feelings of our Founding Fathers on the separation of church and state.
“WND probably wouldn’t like a truly unbiased exhibit, either, detailing the true feelings of our Founding Fathers on the separation of church and state.”
Perhaps this statement is made to suggest that “our Founding Fathers” would, if brought back today, would use some concept of “separation of church and state” to oppose any government funded exhibit that suggests that America had a predominent Christian heritage and an already established Christian history by the time the 1770s and 80s rolled around.
It is suggested that WMD should accept that being “unbiased” means denying history.
So for those who really want to read what our Faounding Fathers DID believe about the so-called separation of church and state, and whether they would deny that America in truth has had a Christian history and heritage, may I here suggest three sources, of which many here are already familiar.
The three organizations mentioned below have, quite literally, full libraries of documentation on America’s Christian history and heritage.

Especially the curriculumn: UNDERSTANDING THE TIMES
