The United States of Jesus

Forget everything you learned about the separation of Church and State. Forget that the Puritans fled Europe because of Religious inequality.

Apparently, the United States constitution establishes this as a Christian nation. At least, according to John McCain.

McCain also said he agreed with a recent poll that 55 percent of Americans believe the U.S. Constitution establishes a Christian nation. "I would probably have to say yes, that the Constitution established the United States of America as a Christian nation," he said.

I've read the US Constitution several times, and I don't recall seeing "Christ", "Jesus" or "Christian" anywhere in there.

It's pretty disappointing to see how far McCain, long considered a moderate, is willing to bend over to appeal to the Christian base.
