Any Christian who says America is a Christian nation is misguided. America was founded with certain Christian values and God is important to the founding government (see national anthem) but in the end America is a secular government.

The "under God phrase was added to the anthem in the 1950's lmao. Nice try.

Ok thanks for the correction, I really didn't know

Not the anthem. The pledge of allegiance. Forced on us in 1954 by Eisenhower and congress. Followed by in God we trust on our currency in 1957 again thanks to Eisenhower and congress. Because that somehow made America better than communist Russia and was totally necessary.

http://www.ushistory.org/documents/pledge.htm This source confirms your statement, just in case deniers pop up. It's amazing how significantly shorter the pledge was when it was first created.

Plus, the anthem has no references to God in it. Not the part that we actually use. Hell, the tune we based it on has more religious references in it.
