Is America a Christian nation?<\/p>\n

Sarah Palin said on Friday that it’s “mind-boggling” to suggest otherwise.<\/p>\n

But two groups dedicated to the separation of church and state are now speaking out against her, arguing that she is misreading the founders’ intent.<\/p>\n

“It’s incredibly hypocritical that Sarah Palin, who disapproves of government involvement in just about anything, now suddenly wants the government to help people be religious<\/strong>,” Barry Lynn, the executive director of Americans United for Separation of Church and State, told ABC News. “It is wildly inconsistent with her views on limited government to get the government involved in matters of faith.”<\/p>\n

[…]<\/p>\n

“While the founders’ views on religion varied from person to person, there is no doubt that they believed strongly that religion had no place in government,” said Paul Fidalgo, the communications manager for the Secular Coalition for America. “John Adams signed the Treaty of Tripoli which stated in no uncertain terms that ‘the Government of the United States of America is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion<\/strong>.’<\/p>\n

“Our Constitution established a secular government and has no mention of Jesus, Christianity, or a god of any kind, despite the false message spread by figures such as Sarah Palin who claim that America was founded as a Christian nation<\/strong>,” Fidalgo continued.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

I’m guessing the Quitter thinks John Adams is just a fancy elitist northeastern beer.<\/p>\n
