3. I do not think it was founded on Paganism...
The first Colonies were Christian Fundamentlist. It is not considered to be the founding event, the offical founding of America was when the Constitution was drafted and signed. It is very clear that this country was founded on NO religious base at all, if it had been, the Constitution would have made that clear.

4. Actually I agree
This information is actually for the purposes of retorting against the christian claims that the United States was founded upon christian principles. This information is to illustrate that there is nothing christian in our documents or state buildings or statues, however, there are numerous examples of pagan symbols and ideas more consistent with pagan ideology in our documents. So in other words if any theology had any claims it would be paganism not christianity.

But yes, your point is correct and-justice-for-all.
