I'm just curious what y'all think about that aspect of your identity. What's it based on? What are its limits?

We are not a Christian nation but we are a nation of Christian’s. I was raised Catholic but I’m an atheist.

Many of the founding fathers were deist but many of the citizens were Christian.

The separation was something that came up much later. Some of the original states had a state religion.

Religion and the government is an interesting topic. It was much more tolerated in the past
