Never were a Christian nation.

Absolutely, not officially. But we used to operate under Judeo-Christian values. That's fallen by the way-side, and it hasn't been a good thing for this country.

“Never were a Christian nation.”

I agree. If we were a true Christian nation we would have to apply the First Commandment and all non-Christian worship would have to cease. In fact, technically religious freedom would be against the First Commandment.

However, considering today’s events, we may become a Muslim nation and all non-Muslim worship will be banned.

Ask the Founders. They clearly based their concept of governance on Natural Law arising from JudeoChristian principles. Your error comes from the insipid liberal 20th century belief that to be a "Christian Nation" means to operate some kind of exclusionary theocracy. Go educate yourself. Read what the Founders actually said. They were a very literate bunch. Read Joseph Story. You'll learn stuff you never knew before.
