Not all people are rational.
From my brief period here, you would seem to be one of the biggest offenders.
The facts are in the article.
You can tell there are facts you want disregarded, because of the way you're pretending they aren't there. When a liberal calls for "facts" assume the point has already been proven.
But, the very core of what our country was founded on comes fromt he belief that our RIGHTS are bestowed from a higher power, and not any individual, group, or governnment entity. If you start to say that individual rights stem from any form of human organization or thought, then you are taking out the very heart of what this country was founded on, and you're heading down a very dangerous road. This country was founded on the rights of the individual, period.

the concept of having a free country where the core revolved around ensuring the individual freedoms of all
"The 1796 treaty with Tripoli states that the United States was "in no sense founded on the Christian religion" (see below). This was not an idle statement, meant to satisfy muslims-- they believed it and meant it. This treaty was written under the presidency of George Washington and signed under the presidency of John Adams."
ouch huh?
The "no religious test" clause of the United States Constitution is found in Article VI, section 3, and states that:
The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the Members of the several State Legislatures, and all executive and judicial Officers, both of the United States and of the several States, shall be bound by Oath or Affirmation, to support this Constitution; but no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office or public trust under the United States.
This has been interpreted to mean that no federal employee, whether elected or appointed, "career" or "political," can be required to adhere to or accept any religion or belief. This clause immediately follows one requiring all federal and state officers to take an oath or affirmation of support to the Constitution. This implies that the requirement of an oath, even presumably one taken "So help me God" (not a part of the presidential oath, the only one spelled out in the Constitution, but traditionally almost always added to it), does not imply any requirement by those so sworn to accept a particular religion or a particular doctrine. Note that the option of giving an affirmation can be interpreted as not requiring any metaphysical belief.
The clause is cited by advocates of separation of church and state as an example of "original intent" of the Framers of the Constitution of avoiding any entanglement between church and state, or involving the government in any way as a determiner of religious beliefs or practices. This is important as this clause represents the words of the original Framers, even prior to the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment.

Where do you believe your rights extend from? The government?
they don't come from the christian god that's for sure.
Please do not like that oft used opinion piece as any proof as to the religions held by the founding fathers....Did the founding fathers want to ensure that there was not a state religion or similar freedom of and from forced specific religion in government? Yes... but this oft used piece of shit page jumps around like a cat on a wet floor with a mild electric short on it
