laz,
This is Tom Sathre.
Thanks for the direct answer: "Yes, it took several years ..." That implies
it's irrelevant to quote from the Founding Fathers about, say, the idea
that this nation was founding on Judeo-Christian values. My mind changes
over the years, and I can't see any reason theirs didn't, too.
Tom.

Yes, it took several years to finally get a 'written' constitution and
set all the things into law. Yet at first it was commonly just accepted
and lived.
With the influx of pilgrims crossing over came criminals and others
running from persecution. So we see there was more than one societal
structure rising up at one time.
But the majority, or maybe the authorative clung to Judeo/Christian
inclinations and ideals.
THIS eventually won out, but at a cost, as compromise entered in. But the
root was still the same.
All one has to do is look to where the majority of our laws were
influenced/came from. As well as to read the works of the founding
fathers of this nation. And yet history, before the founding fathers, is
more inclusive and reflective of this.

laz,
This is Tom Sathre. The reason I used an unbound variable ("XYZ") in
my
note is to avoid the irrelevance of getting it wrong. But, if you
prefer me
to use a bound variable, just tell me what you prefer.
Mind if I ask again? What is the opposite viewpoint is? I mean,
"opposite"
to the assertion that this nation was founded on XYZ principles. I
think
you used "XYZ=Judeo-Christian" but I may be wrong. Didn't the
Founding
occupy years and years, not a moment in time?

there were many people who migrated here who believed in Y'Shua
asMessiah and obeyed the Torah of YHWH. They celebrated the
appointed timesof YHWH (at least as required without there being a Temple),
observed thetrue Sabbath, and all this entails.

Jesus asChrist and took their moral standard for the 'new government'
fromscriptural instruction. Even though they did not take this all the
way,and mixed it with traditions of man.

This nation was founded upon Judeo-Christian values and
I know that the U.S.A. was founded upon morals to be found in
Old
Testament. Thus I do understand the the U.S.A. was founded

Jewish morals. But I have never seen any of the commandments
