Subject: The "Founding Fathers" on Christianity
Date: 2

READ WHAT OUR FOUNDING FATHERS REALLY HAD TO SAY ABOUT AMERICA AND
CHRISTIANITY:

THOMAS JEFFERSON:

Christianity...(has become) the most perverted system that ever
shone on man. ...Rogueries, absurdities and untruths were perpetrated
upon the teachings of Jesus by a large band of dupes and importers
led by Paul, the first great corrupter of the teaching of Jesus.

I have examined all the known superstitions of the world, and I do
not find in our particular superstition of Christianity one redeeming
feature. They are all alike founded on fables and mythology. Millions
of innocent men, women and children, since the introduction of
Christianity, have been burnt, tortured, fined and imprisoned. What
has been the effect of this coercion? To make one half the world
fools and the other half hypocrites; to support roguery and error
all over the earth.

SIX HISTORIC AMERICANS, by John E. Remsburg, letter to William Short

JOHN ADAMS:

Where do we find a precept in the Bible for Creeds, Confessions,
Doctrines and Oaths, and whole carloads of other trumpery that we
find religion encumbered with in these days?

Also Adams:

The doctrine of the divinity of Jesus is made a convenient cover
for absurdity.

Adams signed the Treaty of Tripoli. Article 11 states: The Government
of the United States is NOT IN ANY SENSE founded on the Christian
religion.

Here's THOMAS PAINE:

I would not dare to so dishonor my Creator God by attaching His
name to that book (the Bible).

Among the most detestable villains in history, you could not find
one worse than Moses. Here is an order, attributed to 'God' to
butcher the boys, to massacre the mothers and to debauch and rape
the daughters. I would not dare so dishonor my Creator's name by
(attaching) it to this filthy book (the Bible).
