With fresh eyes, he looks at the vision of religious unity in early America and sees it as "a lie which must be struck down: America was, in her colonial period - like continental Europe - officially religious and in fact characterized by 'baptized heathenism'; in her early years as a nation she was overwhelmingly unchurched and heathen, regardless of pretensions and public claims."We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
