Unless my history lessons are evading me, your country was founded by deists running from fundamentalists.
Fundamentalists running from people not letting them be as fundamentalist as they wanted.
Some of them, especially during the colonies founding, and especially up north. Jefferson, for example, was a deist though, which believes God (the one from the Bible) exists, but he doesn’t interact with anything.
only some of the people were fundamentalists running from people who didn’t let them be fundamentalist, they also had a great many wars with the government because of it
Anabaptists had an end-time cult, took over cities, instituted religious law, legalized polygamy for their leaders, and publicly beheaded their opponents. They were basically the ISIS of their day.
You’re both right. Though the diests tended to be the ones more in the government itself. We had our fair share of fundamentalists to fundamental for back home.
The sad part is that your constitution was considered groundbreaking for the time and some say it influenced the french revolution.
Yes the USA was founded by deists, after the fundamentalists had settled the frontier land. It’s both basically.
