We Are Not A Christian Nation

During his overseas "Trash America" tour, the blame-America-first doofus we have in the White House, had this to say in Turkey,

"We do not consider ourselves a Christian nation, a Jewish nation or a Muslim nation. uh uh We consider ourselves uh uh a nation of us citizens who are bound by ideals and a set of values."

What's this "we" stuff, buddy?

Maybe it's understandable Obama feels that way since he spent twenty years' worth of Sundays at an anti-white, pseudo-Christian hate group instead of going to a real Christian church, but the majority of Americans, myself included, do consider this to be a Christian nation.

This country was founded by Christians seeking religious freedom and Christian principles shaped our founding documents and our culture.

This nation would not be a great nation without Christianity and it will not remain a great or moral country without the majority of its citizens remaining Christian.

That's not to say that there aren't great or moral people of other religions or even great or moral people who have no religion at all, but what's true of individuals, isn't true of nations. We've seen that played out in Western Europe, which is in a rapidly increasing state of decay and we're seeing it here in the U.S. as the number of Christians decreases.

This country was founded by Christians on Christian principles with the intent to allow people to pursue Christian ideals.  In spite of the denials by leftists and atheists who want to proclaim the founders all unreligious deists, the writings of the founding fathers indicate otherwise.  If you study the writings of Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, Madison, Monroe, Washington, et al, you'll find that they not only believed in Biblical teachings, they believed that the United States as a nation would only succeed as it followed the teachings of the Bible. 

You may not like the fact that this nation was founded on Christian principles by Christian men, but the very liberty that is guaranteed you by the 1st Amendment is part and parcel of the Christian faith. 

We all know that none of the founding documents specifically call out Christianity (or any sect of Christianity) as an official State Religion, so let's not spend any time arguing that point.  In the same breath, we all know that Christianity was the religion practiced by not only the founders of the nation, but by a majority of the people for the entirety of the period of her existence. 

Does that make America a Christian Nation?  In official terms: no.  As a matter of practicality, yes. While we are not "formally" a Christian nation, the very values and ideals that Obama referred to in the SAME BREATH in which he declared us a "secular nation", are Christian values, ideals and mores. 

We ARE, indeed, a Christian nation, Obama. It would serve you well to learn a little more about the country you lead.
