To: Faith Presses On

Well, officially since 1892, when the United States Supreme Court held we were a Christian nation.

And, for those who actually look, Christianity is written into the assumptions of the US Constitution.

For example, it has “The Year of Our Lord” written out as the date.

It also includes “Sunday” as a day not to be counted when factoring days the President has to veto a bill.

Some don’t, but I also include the notion of “pardon” which is ingrained in Judeo-Christian ideology (”Isaiah 55:7 Let the wicked forsake his way and the evil man his thoughts. Let him turn to the LORD, and he will have mercy on him, and to our God, for he will freely pardon.)

Can you help me find a link to the SCOTUS ruling so I can bookmark and use.

Thanks.
