When you say, "America was founded as a Christian nation", what exactly do you mean? Surely you do not think that America was founded as a Christian nation in the same way as Saudi Arabia is an Islamic nation?

Go read the Mayflower Compact signed by the Pilgrims as they took ship for the Americas.
I mean a Christian nation not a Christian government. What I mean is that the founding principles of America - self government, God-given rights, etc. as well as our system of government are judeo-Christian in origin. In addition, the first people who settled here were Christian people - pilgrims, puritans. In addition, 95% of the founding fathers were Christians, the majority of which were calvinist, and 99%of the people were professing Christians at the time of the Revolution. In a very small nutshell, that is what I mean.
