Über diesen Titel

This episode dismantles the myth that the U.S. Constitution was founded as a Christian charter, exploring the founders' deist beliefs, key Enlightenment influences, and evidence like the Treaty of Tripoli and Jefferson's writings.

Through examples — Franklin's pragmatism, Paine's radical critique, Jefferson's edited Bible, and the distinction between "God" and "Nature's God" — the episode explains how the founders built a secular machine of government and why that matters today.
