Quote:
"I have examined all the known superstitions of the word, and I do not find in our particular superstition of Christianity one redeeming feature. They are all alike founded on fables and mythology. Millions of innocent men, women and children, since the introduction of Christianity, have been burnt, tortured, fined and imprisoned. What has been the effect of this coercion? To make one half the world fools and the other half hypocrites; to support roguery and error all over the earth." Jefferson again: "Christianity...(has become) the most perverted system that ever shone on man. ...Rogueries, absurdities and untruths were perpetrated upon the teachings of Jesus by a large band of dupes"; and More Jefferson: "The clergy converted the simple teachings of Jesus into an engine for enslaving mankind and adulterated by artificial constructions into a contrivance to filch wealth and power to themselves...these clergy, in fact, constitute the real Anti-Christ. Jefferson's word for the Bible? "Dunghill." John Adams: "Where do we find a precept in the Bible for Creeds, Confessions, Doctrines and Oaths, and whole carloads of other trumpery that we find religion encumbered with in these days?" Also Adams: "The doctrine of the divinity of Jesus is made a convenient cover for absurdity." Adams signed the Treaty of Tripoli. Article 11 states: "The Government of the United States is not in any sense founded on the Christian religion." And this is not a direct quote (because I don't have my fingers on it at the moment) but Adams wrote to Jefferson sometime in the 18-teens, about ten years before their shared deathdate of July 4, 1826 that he frequently believed that the world would have been a far better place had there never been any religion. Here's Thomas Paine: "I would not dare to so dishonor my Creator God by attaching His name to that book (the Bible)." "Among the most detestable villains in history, you could not find one worse than Moses. Here is an order, attributed to 'God' to butcher the boys, to massacre the mothers and to debauch and rape the daughters. I would not dare so dishonor my Creator's name by (attaching) it to this filthy book (the Bible)." "It is the duty of every true Deist to vindicate the moral justice of God against the evils of the Bible." "Accustom a people to believe that priests and clergy can forgive sins...and you will have sins in abundance."; and "The Christian church has set up a religion of pomp and revenue in pretended imitation of a person (Jesus) who lived a life of poverty." Finally let's hear from James Madison: "What influence in fact have Christian ecclesiastical establishments had on civil society? In many instances they have been upholding the thrones of political tyranny. In no instance have they been seen as the guardians of the liberties of the people. Rulers who wished to subvert the public liberty have found in the clergy convenient auxiliaries. A just government, instituted to secure and perpetuate liberty, does not need the clergy." Madison objected to state-supported chaplains in Congress and to the exemption of churches from taxation. He wrote: "Religion and government will both exist in greater purity, the less they are mixed together." These founding fathers were a reflection of the American population. Having escaped from the state-established religions of Europe, only 7% of the people in the 13 colonies belonged to a church when the Declaration of Independence was signed. but hey, don't let the facts get in the way of your opinions. I mean I'd hate to NOT be able to laugh at your overwhelming stupidity on a regular basis. |

Brain, you still have not answered my questions directly. Of course, you never answer a question directly. Furthermore taking a piece of a statement, a book, or a speech and putting a spin on it is not answering the question either. I asked you to prove that these men were in fact not Christians, can you do this? Isaac is right. Look at the money you spend every day, what does it say?
IN GOD WE TRUST Hmmm, wonder what made them decide to put that on there? Ohhh...maybe it's because the forefathers of our country were CHRISTIANS! They believed in God. |

Still doesn't support your false belief that all of the founding fathers were christian, does it? Quote:
The argument is that all of the Founding Fathers were not christian and you have failed miserably at proving that they were (if you even remember that WAS the point) |
