There is no such thing as "Separation of Church and State" in the Constitution. Thomas Jefferson used the phrase in a letter to the Danbury Baptist Association in 1802. The Constitution is based on Christian values and a biblical worldview, but it does not establish Christianity as the "national religion." As well, the Constitution is not a "living document" that should be altered to fit current culture trends. We are not an atheist nation, or a humanist nation, or an agnostic nation. The settlers declared this to be a Christian nation, and that we are!

The depth of this conversation requires more research than what I was able to accomplish by the recording of this video. Thus, I've only shared a summary of my initial thoughts. I will record more in the future.
