Well, one of the evidences that your source is flawed is that Roger Williams was not a Danbury Baptist. In fact, he lived over a century earlier and was only a Baptist for a few months.
There are a lot of things that are "not in the Constitution" verbatim but are definitely implied by the wording, for instance, "seperation of powers".
Another reason I know your source to be wrong is the suggestion that the triune goverment was inspired by Isaiah 33:22. I have read Madison's notes on the Constitutional convention and not a word suggests that any verse in the Bible inspired anything with regards to the founding and formation of the US government.
The burden of proof is on you, not me. I know that the government of the United States is not, in any sense, founded upon the Christian religion. If you aren't aware of it too, it is hardly my problem.
