15. Seems to me their whole argument seems to be based on their

definition of God. Which of course, flies in the face of that little phrase from the Declaration of Independence

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are
created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with
certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life,
Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

Our founding fathers appreciated human differences and that is why, in the Declaration, they stated "that they are endowed BY THEIR CREATOR"

Our Constitution requires a separation between government and religion: our First Amendment provides that "congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion."
