Show me how biblical law was incorporated into our Constitution. Demonstrate that the bible calls for a constitutional republic to be formed. Explain, if you will, how the declaration of indepence, penned by a Deist, is founded on Christian principles.

Our nation was founded as a bastion of freedom for all religions and creeds. There were many good Christian people who participated in the founding of our country and the overwhelming majority in fact were Christian of one type or another. The fact remains that they created a secular state based on reason.

I guess the Declaration of Independence is just a legal document then.

All of our laws are based on the Decalogue.

Actually, it was the French who did that...and it didn't work out too well.
