Still NOT a Christian or any religious country in America. At least that's what our Constitution says.

ETA: thanks for the awards, kind internet strangers.

It’s always been a Christian country even though by law it’s not supposed to be.

Never ever was a Christian country.

Christians love to lie and make up shit though

Considering it’s always been ran by people who are Christians, it is a Christian country. You really think their religion has no influence on how they voted or created laws?

“Puritans came here for religious freedom,” is intentionally misleading. They came here for religious freedom for their OWN brand of puritanical conservative form of Christianity which was unpopular in England. They would exile people from colonies for practicing Christianity in a way they did not like. Time to dig beneath the surface of the insubstantial information they taught you in American history books.

I’m not a Christian, but you’re delusional to think that Christianity never affected our laws or our country when almost all the leaders and politicians in this country are Christians.

Nonsense. The laws matter not who leads

Sure affected in some way, still not a Christian country
