A panda walks into a cafe. He orders a sandwich, eats it, then draws a gun and fires two shots in the air. "Why?" asks the confused waiter, as the panda makes toward the exit. The panda produces a badly punctuated wildlife manual and tosses it over his shoulder. "I'm a panda," he says at the door. "Look it up." The waiter turns to the relevant entry and, sure enough, finds an explanation. "Panda. Large black-and-white bear-like mammal, native to China. Eats, shoots and leaves." |

Most of our founding fathers were deists. They probably attended a church at one point or another, but came around to the works of the enlighenment and Deism (two separate thoughts)
So yes I would say that our country is NOT founded on Judeo-christian beliefs. |

Regardless of all that, the principles on which this grand republic was founded were decidedly secular.

Agreed....I was just pointing out to a fact. In Franklin's case, I think it was to pick up widows. ![]()
