concerned about politics,

You're exactly right! You cannot study the debates surrounding the wording of the US Constitution without seeing their painstaking analysis of the Bible and of Christian writings as the foundation and justifications for the government they were attempting to forge.

There were extensive debates on "obscure" passages from Nehemia and other minor prophets and what these writing implied about this country. When they talked about religious freedoms, they talked about the freedom to worship the God of the Bible in whatever manner a man felt he should.

Are you trying to say that the First Amendment was only meant to apply to Jews, Christians, and Moslems?
