Having a government actively promote one specific sect through laws is a worse mistake.

Agree. Government should actively promote Christianity in general, as our Founding Fathers believed, rather than a particular Christian sect. You really should read Story.

I did read Story. Story is evil and a liar. You said so -he's a judge.

Our Founding Fathers did not believe that. they believed that People should promote Christianity - not the government.

There is a huge difference between a President offering a prayer and a law requiring religious teaching and religious behavior. The Founding Fathers would have no problem with the former but would scream at the latter.
