Is America really a Christian Nation?

Is American Really a Christian Nation
The arguments about seperation of church and state and the attacks from both the religious right and the non-religious left are rediculous.  

With Politics constantly raging many conservatives claim that our country was founded as a Christian Nation and that we ought to return to that glorious ideal. 

But was it really?  

Were the founding fathers trying to establish a Christian Nation?  Did they actually believe in the Judeo-Christian faith and call themselves Christian?  Would they have fought the same battles that modern conservatives chose to fight? 

If they were Christians, what does that prove?  If America was founded as a Christian nation, is it still?  If it's not, but it used to be,  do we really want to go back to how it was in America's early history that just so happens to also be marked by slavery, war, and various other hardships? 

​What if the founding fathers weren't actually Christians?  Does that change America?  How should we live now if America isn't or wasn't a Christian nation?

If these questions interest you, take a seccond to check out the new eBook by pastor Brian Reed.  It it you will find an overview of 12 of the founding fathers including George Washington and Benjamin Franklin.  The eBook provides a bulleted list of facts about each man as well as quotes that indicate his beliefe system.  The eBook is based on Pastor Brians seminar titled, "In what sense can we speak of America as a 'Christian Nation'"?

You can download the eBook here.
