    if your referring to the cons ution, james madison was the primary author

    jefferson wrote the declaration of independence.

    "that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights"
    The use of the words "Their Creator" I think proves that this isn't a Christian nation. Don't you think "God" would have fit better here if that's what they were driving at?

    The term is open to any creator you want to put in there. I'm guessing that's why they wrote it like that.

    of course. its not intended to be a christian country, but its not intended to be anti-religious either. freedom of religion is a pretty big deal, and i think the founders tried to make that very clear. if they hated religion, they wouldnt have given a damn.

    I was going to wait for her to chime in but I'm fairly certain she thinks its a legit sign.

    What she doesn't know is that the sign of the beast is really 616 not 666. There was orginally an error in the translation. Despite the error I doubt society will ever get past the orginal 666 connotations.


    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/216_(number)
    As six cubed, 216 is also symbolic of the Mark of the Beast in Christianity. This has been expressed in the Left Behind series. This is interesting as the quotient of 144,000/666 is 216.216216216... These two numbers are used extensively throughout the book of Revelation in the Holy Bible, where the Mark of the Beast is identified.
    The 216th verse of the Apocalypse: (Revelation 13:4) " And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast"
