America: A Christian Nation
or a Secular Nation?
Not a single person who signed the U.S. Constitution intended to create
a secular nation. From the beginning, America was a Christian
nation, and the Founding Fathers did not intend to change this. Every
single Signer of the Constitution believed the following:
- Christianity was the true religion, others
were "false
religions."
- Forming a civil government was a religious duty imposed
by the God of the Bible, and hence all governments must be "under God."
- The God of the Bible answered the prayers of the colonists by directly and supernaturally
intervening in human history, aiding their revolution against the
British Empire to ensure American victory. Not a single "deist" ("clockmaker god")
signed the Constitution.
- It is the duty of all governments to endorse and promote the true religion,
and make sure the statutes they pass conform to the
Bible.
Below are over 100 links to webpages with primary source evidence that
the modern notion of "separation of church and state" is a myth. That
slogan has nothing to do with churches, and really means "the
separation of God and state." Our goal is to persuade you that
America was intended to be a Christian nation. Imagine the following
spectrum:
| Atheistic Nation |
"Neutral"
nation |
Christian Nation |
Theocracy |
| Communist China |
Sweden |
America,
1844 |
??? |
The links on this page should not only convince you that America was
designed to be a Christian nation, but that
America was intended to be a Christian Theocracy.

"Theocracy" literally means "ruled by God." It has
nothing to do with priests. America was supposed to be a nation "under God." If America is under
God, then God is over America. That's the literal meaning of
"theocracy." All the evidence points to theocracy. All
the evidence is against the idea of America as an atheistic nation.
And when it comes to a nation's allegiance to God, none of the Signers of
the Constitution believed that "neutrality" was an option. If
you read all the evidence linked from this page, you will at least end up
agreeing with "Christian nation," and will probably admit
that America was intended to be a theocracy.
The mainstream media use "theocracy" as a scare word. Neutralize
the word here. |

Ancient
History
The Founding Fathers were keen students of
ancient history. They knew that religion had always been considered of
great utility by ancient governments. There has never been a separation of
religion and state in the history of man. The Founders did not intend to
change this.
The Reformation: Rebirth of Theocracy
- The Protestant Reformation was a key
influence in the American Revolution.
- First,
because the revolt against Roman Catholicism was a source of American
anti-clericalism. Today's European
Protestant churches are unreformed Roman churches. "New Presbyter
is but Old Priest, writ large" (Milton). Most of the Founders'
remarks used by atheists in our day to support the separation of
religion and state were
actually anti-clerical remarks designed to separate churches and
state, and reduce competition between clergy. This philosophy leads to
the House-Church
movement, where religion becomes more pervasive in the life of the
believer, not to a secular state, where religion becomes more
peripheral.
- Second, because the
Calvinistic emphasis on the Sovereignty of God was a direct challenge to
"statism," the deity of the sovereign state. The
Revolutionary War was a Calvinist Revolution.
It is important not to confuse anti-clericalism with secularism. The
author of this web page, a
fanatic Christian Theocrat, has not been a church-member for 15
years.
The pages linked below discuss Early American history in the context of
Theocracy (a nation "under God") and
Anarchism (a People with a divine wall protecting them
from incursions on their rights by archists in
church and state). There is no compelling evidence that the
Founding Fathers intended to separate God and government.
America: Theocracy in the New
World
Modern secularists have problems understanding the American
relationship between religion and government because they do not
understand that the Founders believed that
- Religion was the foundation of government;
- There was a true religion and there were other false religions;
- It would be suicidal to base a commonwealth on a false religion;
- The Government, in order to survive, must endorse and promote the
true religion.
Every single person who signed the Constitution agreed with these four
premises, and they agreed that the true religion was Christianity. It
doesn't matter that they didn't agree among themselves as to the details
of the Christian religion. It doesn't matter that they made sure that one
variety of Christianity would have no legal power over other varieties of
Christianity. What matters is that not a single signer of the Constitution
believed in the "separation of church and state" where the word "church"
means "Christianity, the
true religion."
The pages below are designed to explain these propositions and to show
that they were universally held by the Founding Fathers.
