    oh totally - it’s just that the myth making of US history isn’t new, and part of why these grifters get away with this nonsense is that there’s been a fertile plot of bullshit for a long time.

    But yeah, no, America was not founded as a “Christian nation”. Anyone thinking that is ignoring the Jefferson Bible, or the Treaty of Tripoli.

      I kinda wonder why Trump hasn’t published a bible yet.

      I’d guarantee it’d sell millions and not a single copy would be read.
