About this listen
Was the United States really founded as a Christian nation? What does the separation of church and state even mean, and what does the Constitution actually say?
To answer these questions we explore colonial religious life, Enlightenment influences, and the debates of the Founding Fathers. Along the way, we meet the original Christian evangelicals, watch a political boxing match unfold in Virginia, and briefly run into pirates in North Africa. Who knew the religious roots of the United States involved so many different stories? In the end, we gain a better understanding of the role of the Christian religion in the founding of the country... and the limits of that influence.
