[QUOTE="CharlieMurphy, post: 2791899, member: 31193"] Interesting discussion...my opinion is the founders recognized the acceptance of a creator being and a natural law as being accknowledged by most major religions but at the same time recognized the need to govern using logic and reason and not superstition. Far more damage has been been done by overly religious states than by secular ones. "Religion is what keeps the poor from murdering the rich," -Napoleon "Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by the rulers as useful," -Seneca "No man ever believes the bible means what it says, he is always convinced it says what he means," Shaw [/QUOTE]
