We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

Since we're talking about the Constitution, it would probably make more sense for you to actually quote the Constitution rather than the Declaration of Independence. The two documents had two very different purposes, and the Founders were wise enough to keep religion out of the establishment of our nation's actual governing principles.

Funny, I don't remember talking to you at all. Tactologic understood perfectly. That you don't is a pity but I can live with that.

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof;...First Amendment, Constitution of The United States.
