First, the assertion that this country was founded on "Christian principles" would be news to Thomas Jefferson, who was adamant on the theory of separation of church and state. In fact, our founders felt so strong about that one point that they made it the cornerstone of our entire constitution.

It would take a political discussion for us to disagree Mark!
Actually, the phrase "separation of church and state" does not appear anywhere in the Constitution. Do you know where the phrase originated? You've got the author right...
Also, stating that this country was founded on Christian principles is not contradictory to stating that there is a separation of church and state.
