Even the Founders might have been bothered by this part (as the nation was not founded on solely Christian principles, and this is clearly documented). The rest is very good.

Please provide some solid references by the founders on this, because so far I've missed all this documentation.

Does the Constitution count? It protects the right to violate at least three of the Ten Commandments. A nation founded solely (or even predominantly) on Christian principles would likely do no such thing. At the very least, it would explicitly reference Christianity in its founding document.
