@seawulf575 “The Founding Fathers all had Judeo-Christian values.”
Not unless we’re using the term in a way that is so broad as to be meaningless. Some practiced Christianity in an orthodox way, some were deists who expressly rejected the Judeo-Christian paradigm, and some were aligned with Christianity as an approach to ethics while rejecting everything supernatural about it.
“I’m quite certain their ideals carried over a little bit into the Constitution.”
Sure, but an overlap between the values of Christianity and the values of a nation and/or influence of the former on the latter aren’t really what people mean when they talk about a country being a Christian nation. A Christian nation must be, at least in part, explicitly based on the tenets of Christianity because they are the tenets of Christianity. Otherwise, nations that had nearly identical laws to the US but were populated and founded by people who were not themselves Christian in any way would count as Christian nations (which would be patently absurd).
@kritiper “Generally speaking, yes. Since being a Christian is simply being a follower of the teachings of Jesus Christ, by exact definition.”
But then the answer would be no, because a nation is not a living, thinking being and thus cannot follow the teachings of anyone. We could say that the US is a nation with a Christian majority, but that’s not what “Christian nation” means (though we might describe it using the similar, but importantly different, phrase “nation of Christians”).
