[When the Constitution was written, there was no mention of God, Jesus, the Bible or Christianity, save the ambigious matter of the date at the end. The idea of adding some such reference was considered, and was rejected rather resoundingly. We know this from the words of Luther Martin, a convention delegate who strongly advocated adding said reference.]

This was a fundamental error.

[Since then, America has become the greatest and most powerful nation the world has ever seen, and every other government in existance at the time has changed rather dramatically.]

There are many good things about America, including her social stability and wealth, but the worst thing about our country, besides the millions slaughtered in state-sanctioned abortions, is the rise of moral relativism, which can arguably be tied to the religious indifferentism that is central to our constitutional form of government.

[I would say that the objective evidence suggests that if one assumes that some deity who we can call God is involved in the state of our world, said Deity had no objection to said ommission.]

At the very least, God permitted the rise of the Roman Empire, the Ottoman empire, Hitler, Stalin and Mao. One cannot necessarily infer from earthly power God's blessing upon a nation.
