By Colton Grellier, JD The separation of church and state was an interesting addition to a system of government created by group of very religious men. John Adams is quoted as saying, “Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious People. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.”[1] Even Benjamin Franklin, likely the least religious of all the founding fathers, made a motion in 1787 that the Constitutional Convention should be opened each day with prayer.[2] Years of research have established the overt Christian faith of the most influential minds of the Founding era and of the Judeo-Christian foundation of our legal system.
