That was, quote, "not established on the Christian religion."
That phrase is official to what was signed.

No, it's you who ignore the fact people like Jefferson demanded it be kept out. No promoting the church, no state sponsored religion, no national day of prayer, no promoting Bible reading, absolutely none of it was to be had.

It wasn't taken off. That is officially a part of the legal and signed document.
The overused “which God”.
Is there historical value of Islam in the creation of the United States law? Hellooooo!

Roe v Wade is not in the Constitution.
Roe v Wade in no way answers the request.
Where in the Constitution does it state that State Rights supersede the Constitution?
You can not present a direct answer for this direct question because it does not exist.
Thus the reason for your dancing.

the only historic value of Christianity in the creation of the United States is that the Founding Fathers did NOT want the united States to be a Christian Nation.
That is correct… it is a STATE right.
When the Constitution does not address a particular item it is a STATE right.
Freedom of Religion did NOT affect State Constitutions.
Are you purposefully changing the context of what Is said? If the Constitution said “Freedom FROM Religion” - State Constitutions would have had to be changed.
No… you are dancing around what I said. Why?
Nope
Actually, what all of this sounds like is that you don’t want it to be a Christian nation

RvW was a court ruling, overturned by a court ruling. If Congress passed a federal law it would have precedence over State law.
You're giving us opinions & artfully selected facts.
This isn't the TRUTH.
We don't ignore your "truth". We rail against Christianity
infusing federal, state, & city governments. But because
Christians are the 600# gorilla in government, they succeed
in keeping their faith as semi-official.
Sometimes they dismiss it as de minimis, eg, their motto
("In God we trust) oath on money replacing the original
secular mottos ("We are one" & "Mind your business").
Do you know that history?
Another tool is to claim that the name of their god, ie, God,
represents all gods. Of course, we see thru that charade.
It's not Allah, Lackshmi, or Krom. Nor is it secular to us godless
heathens, those whom you seek to impose your fairy tales
upon.
Ask Jefferson, who had a copy of the Koran.
That smacks of belief that your values & opinions are so
obviously true, that we must be fools to disagree with you.
I'm not the one who believes that public schools must
preach that snakes talk, & other utterly ludicrous fantasies.
You also aren't addressing that if Christianity is to be
taught as history, it should include your enslaving people,
committing pogroms, destroying cultures, etc, etc.
You seem to favor a whitewashed history....proselytizing
propaganda.
The legal foundation of USA is the Constitution.
You just don't like the 1st & 14th Amendments
because they don't allow you to impose Christianity
upon the unwilling.
Christianity has a terrible deadly thieving history in
this country & abroad. It is a hideous morality to
embrace, let alone impose upon non-believers.
I’ve asked (figuratively speaking) to dozens of Presidents and State Constitutions.
I wholeheartedly agree. It is the modern interpretation that I don’t agree with.

Citation needed. And a second treaty does not necessarily negate the original.
It doesn’t matter what is in a state constitution. The US Constitution supersedes and overrides state constitutions. Always. That the US Constitution doesn’t address Roe v. Wade makes it a states’ rights issue. That the US Constitution doesn’t address a right to privacy makes it a states’ rights issue. If the US Constitution addressed Roe v. Wade, or guaranteed a right to privacy, then it would supersede and override the states. So, the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment supersedes and overrides all state constitutions. Ergo, to wit, therefore, abracadabra, hocus pocus the Louisiana bill will not stand. The SCOTUS will slap it down. Prove me wrong and change my mind. Hint: you can’t.
