The founding fathers had their strenghts and weaknesses in their beliefs, and as they are dead, people around now are going to have their different opinions on what those even were.

I am also not interested in hearing any insult to my faith that I usually see following cryptic comments concerning Witchcraft. You can be of Wicca and be of the left or right wing, just like in Christianity, and some Christianity interprets the Bible differently concerning Gays and Lesbians, and as a non-Christian, I am not going to explore that either, as I am not interested in hearing that I am out to slam Christianity.

I'm not challenging your right to believe whatever you want to. If you want to believe that trees can fly, then fine, believe it. What I am challenging is the constant leftist attitude that your right to believe in flying trees(or rocks for that matter) came from the Founders when historical documentation shows that to be a false statement. The Founders gave us the right to freedom of religion to protect the religious institutions and not the state (by their own statements, not what we believe those statements to mean).

That's not attacking yours, mine, or anyone else's religion. But it is attacking the baseless claim that the Founders were being all inclusive as so many use for their own purpose today

Moral-liberals, such as in academia and the media, usually view all religions as equal insofar as all religions are equally invalid to their eyes.

I am simply pointing out that the U.S. Constitution is an inspiring document in that the founding fathers crafted it very well to allow it to endure despite changing circumstances in our country.

It is wonderful to see how a document designed in the eighteenth century still has complete relevance to the United States in the twenty-first.

If they had made a narrowly constructed document, the Mormons would have been violating it by forming their church. My religion that is a reconstitution of pagan religions around before, and during early Christianity would have been in the same boat.

The U.S. Constitution will be with us a long time because of the brilliance of our founders. I know I have read theories that some of the thought that went into the Constitution was derived from the Iroquois Nation's way of running themselves, but that's what happens when a person like me spends too much time going to school taking too many political science and history related classes. ;-)
