"The Mayflower Compact - 1620..."

Superseded by the Constitution. Interesting historically, but irrelevant to law.

"Say what you will....but if the framers of the constitution had wanted a separation of Christian principals from government, it would have been enforced from July 4th 1776. Not 1962."

Say what you will, but if the framers of the Constitution had wanted a "Christian Nation", they would have written it into the document.

They specifically prohibited it.

Were they too communists?

“Of all the habits and dispositions which lead to political prosperity, religion and morality are indispensable supports. In vein would that man claim the tribute of patriotism, who would labor to subvert these great pillars.”

George Washington (Farewell Address)

This statement was made after the constitution was ratified.It's clear what their intent was.

This argument has been made before between you and I. Why don't you just acept the FACT that you are wrong!
