I agree completely. If the FF's had had any desire to have this country base its laws on religion, they would have expressly put that into the documents which they wrote to define this country.
The nonsensical claim that the Constitution is based on the principles of Christianity (or any religion or sect of a religion) is to claim that the desire for freedom and a lack of tyranny is specific to Christianity (or any religion or sect of religion). Absurd.
