I would like some historical evidence to your claims.Okay. Look what the right-wing French monarchists did after they took back their country and abolished the Republic. That, and every single government ever created in Christian Europe until the founding of the USA (not a single democracy among them). Catholics, Protestants, they all messed up.

No, I mean I would like you to provide evidence supporting your statement on how the greatness of our country is from founding fathers who worshiped many religions.

Are you suggesting that the Bourbon monarchy was worse than the French Comittee of Public Safety's bloody Reign of Terror?
The bolshevik interpretation of the establishment clause, Godless "social contract" and Tom Paine-like hatred of religion are the legacy of the failed French Revolution and are foreign to the American tradition.
