That is not the vision of the Founders

It depends on the Founder. Madison wanted ZERO religion in government. He opposed having chaplains in Congress and the military. I think he would have been opposed to this.

OK, that was one Founder for your position, and the vast majority of the rest who wrote extensively about thier Christian faith and how they could craft a government that would somehow best enable the practice of Christian values and virtues.

The Founding Fathers on Jesus, Christianity and the Bible
