His very left-wing social agenda, some of which was defeated in courts. But, he was probably the first president who fully embraced the idea of America as a post-Christian nation and went all-in on secular, left-wing values.
America never was a Christian nation
That's the principle that we disagree on. I don't think the government should force adherence to any religion, but our laws should absolutely have a basis in Christian values.
How profoundly against the letter and spirit of the founding fathers ideals.
"Separation of church and state" is not in the Constitution. The first amendment only protects religion from government's interference, but does not protect the government from religion's influence. No faithful Christian would be willing to say "Jesus, look away" when they were voting on a piece of legislation. Christians must take Christ with them everywhere they go.
So surely you would not protest if a Muslim politician wanted to impose Sharia Law using the same rationale?
I would certainly protest the idea that electing someone who believed that would be good for the preservation of individual liberties.
As would the deist Founding Fathers if someone wanted Christianity enshrined into law.
Deism amongst the Founding Fathers is overstated.
The first sentence of the first amendment literally says we cannot base our laws based on any religion .
