does anyone else find it odd to assume that people who identified as christian two hundred years ago would automatically back anything done in the name of any christian church today? it seems naive to act as if the church has not evolved over the last two centuries and that the interpretation of the bible that christian churches now have might be different than the popular interpretation at the founding of the USA. Science and society have changed vastly over the last two centuries and I don't think anyone is qualified to make assumption on what the founding father would think if they were alive today.
