United States Documents of Federation.".... and your feeble reply is a referance to a diplomatic treaty letter- over 20 years after the fact I prescribed. Okie dokey, eezee peezee...good luck with what ever it is you are doing.

The Constitution clearly says that the treaty is the "supreme law of the land". Beyond that, it is sugnificant that the treaty was unamiously ratified by the Senate. I have read many arguments pro and con taking statements from one or another of the founding fathers and extralpilating from that, intent. In this treaty, we have a clear statement of intent, clear assent of the Senate, and a signature of the President of the United States giving credibility to the statement that the United States was not founded on the Christian religion.

The US Constitution was ratified on December 15, 1791, the treaty was signed November 4, 1796, not a period of 20 years. Perhaps you are confusing the first, failed government under the Articles of Confederation with our current system.

Where is the separation of Church & State in Our Nation's Founding Documents? Show just one example. Did I once mention the Christian Church or any Church-NO- yet you keep blathering about a diplomatic letter, don't ya lucysmom? So, you are a self proclaimed Christian, yet you keep diverting from truth and thus lying- long, hard and continuously. Please admit your anti-federalist biased opinion, whatever it may be. Clean it up.
