Ok, I posted this topic thinking someone would be bored enough to watch it. It was my fault to assume. So I'll break it down for you guys.
Newt Gingrich, former-something or other is taking a stand on the Christian side and is saying that was the forefathers and the early presidents were Christians along with JFK and Reagen. He has facts from sources such as the Lincoln, Jefferson, and Washington monuments and the Declaration of Independence.
I've read many places that say that they weren't religious. I just wanted to know where people stand on this topic. I personally believe that hes right based on his so called "facts." I haven't seen anyone else's opinion on this besides some blind, anger driven person's opinion.
The pilgrims were Christian based so it would seem obvious that they would want a country that was based on that idea. Also, you can't start a strong country without a common goal. Whats your thoughts on this?
Also, heres the video where I got my information. Skip to about 1/4 - halfway in the video to get to the good stuff: http://vidego.multicastmedia.com/player.php?p=g5944eu6
