The Founding Myth

Book • 2019
Andrew L. Seidel's "The Founding Myth" challenges the widely held belief that the United States was founded as a Christian nation.

The book meticulously examines historical documents and legal precedents to demonstrate the separation of church and state enshrined in the Constitution.

Seidel exposes the historical inaccuracies and deliberate misrepresentations used to promote a narrative of Christian nationalism.

He argues that this myth has been used to justify discrimination and undermine democratic values.

The book serves as a crucial resource for understanding the ongoing struggle between religious freedom and the separation of church and state in America.
