Don't hurt your arm patting yourself on the back burton13 because your brilliant in your own mind. I really don't put much faith in what you called smart men but I'll admit they were book smart. As for this nation being based on christainity, it may not have been entirely but I feel it had alot to do with it. You said it was based on common sense, not stealing, killing and etc., as you know alot of these things comes from the ten commandents in the Bible. I not trying to change your mind cause I can tell you never will and I'ld say your book smart (but no genius). Like I said I don't put much faith in brilliant men, actually can't stand to be around them.
