re: Do you believe that the United States was founded as a Christian Nation?

Was having an interesting conversation about this with someone on Facebook. I tried to explain to her that most of the founding fathers were Deists and not Christians. She obviously did not believe me even after I provided quotes from several of the founding fathers. What are your thoughts on this?

I feel like everyone is this thread is using a different definition of what is a "Christian Nation".

1) What is a Christian Nation for the purpose of this Thread

2) What are "Christian Principles"?

The Bible itself seems to work against arguments that this nation was founded on christian base. The bible supersedes anything else as far as Christianity goes.

Thomas Aquinas base his views of natural law from Greek philosophers before him and not the bible. He was merely a Philosopher who just happened to be christian in regards to natural law.
