NO REPLIES TO THIS?

I think his summary is probably correct (although it doesn't hold for Jefferson). That said, what the Founding Fathers felt about a robustly Christian America should have no effect on what our society should think about religion's place in America today. And I would worry about a man who thinks it should.

This is an outstanding post that was ignored here.
I am a Paul supporter yet do not understand the need to appeal to the founding fathers' religious beliefs for any matter regarding today's politics (or any other subject). It is about as relevant to me as discussing Pythagoras' bizarre religious beliefs when finding the length of the hypotenuse of a triangle.
I won't expound further as Andyfox summed it up perfectly.
