Please explain to me exactly, why if the country was created by Jesus, NONE of the founding documents reference that name. I don't recall any mention in the Federalist Papers. Paine certainly doesn't as he flat out hated Christianity.
many of the founders felt God’s hand in the creation of America
Vague to the point of being meaningless and it has nothing to doing with Jesus creating the US. Many of the founding fathers were non Christian deists.
That said, it could be that God has blessed America for it's making a refuge for Jews and since 1948 Israel. That is not so much in play anymore, what with lop ears running his oligarchs' regime to destroy America as a We The People Republic.
We have the freedom of religion...to believe as we will...God grants each of us free will and the Constitution he helped author does the same in that regard.
The government published bibles for schools with taxpayer funds. Thomas Jefferson whom liberals and anti-Christians believe was Deist (means differently than what you think) wrote a bible for converting Indians that included Jesus Christ. Indeed, if you look at my tagline you will see an actual quote from Thomas Jefferson. If you visit the Jefferson Memorial in DC you will see other quotes referring to God.
