Wasn't there until 1954 - thus more evidence the US was NOT founded to be a christian nation, but a conspiracy of christians has been underway to take it over......

What makes you think that Christian Morals (tm) are the only morals out there? What proof do you have that they are superior, or Gods will? No seriously? Don't say the bible, because that is neither proof, or accurate, given the editing over the close to 2000 years it has existed.

Oh yes because that statement only makes sense
im actually kinda dissappointed christians havent tried harder to bring about prophecy. Im such a fool i should have seen you were right all along, random stranger on the internet, with your fancy wikipedia knowledge...

Moving on, no matter ones opinion, its impossible to say faith in God played no part in the creation of this country. But the american revolutionists were atheist cuz you read it somewhere or heard it from someone who knew them

In 1954, in response to the Communist threat of the times, President Eisenhower encouraged Congress to add the words "under God," creating the 31-word pledge we say today. Bellamy's daughter objected to this alteration.

Faith in which god though? There are thousands of them. The word god does not automatically mean the Christian one, neither does the word Creator.

I think the first nations may take exception that any of their "american" nations were founded by the Abrahamic Deities followers

Pick one. While you still have the freedom to.

First tell me where you heard of the christian conspiracy, or did you come to that conclusion all on your own?

As an Atheist, it would be a nightmare for many of us should Christianity became the national religion of the US due to this:

Not just for atheists. There are a great many people who are spiritual but do not follow one of the Abrahamic faiths in the USA. I am pretty sure a lot of Jews would cringe at a "Christian nation", that never ends well for them.

YOU can take away your own freedom to choose. But that is a subject of another debate and you are avoiding the point. To deny God in the making of this country is lying to yourself. Yes We the People, not greater but Under God. Dont get upset when people choose the christian God

Where did I ever say the country wasn't founded with the Creator in mind? Please point that out. You're confused.

And it would literally be hell should Atheism become the national perception.
get it? cuz christians believe in hell... nevermind.

But political correctness is a more formal form of atheism. And dont give me the crap its the many different kinds of religions that caused it. Bull. Religious wars have happened for hundreds of years (and they will continue, until man, not God, gets his crap straight), it wasnt until people got offended by religion that pc came along

"And thus the Lord did sayeth"
"Thou shalt not be a dick."
That's a fragment of the Dead Sea Scrolls.
I interpreted it myself.
It is the One Commandment that need not be commanded.
"If thou art a diick."
"Thou shalt be smited."

Sort of what JC the younger (Julius Caeser being the elder) said with "Do unto others". IF he said it (given its third hand blah blah).
