The Constitution of the United States was intentionally created as a completely godless document. In these transcripts of her American Atheist Radio programs, Dr. Madalyn Murray O'Hair tells us about freedom of religion in colonial America; American deism; the rewriting of history by Christians; the Christianity of our founding as a nation; freethought in American historical documents; freethought organizations in the early U.S.; Thomas Paine, American deist and freethinker; Colonel Ethan Allen; James Madison's memorial and remonstrance against religious assessments; Jefferson's idea of religious freedom; and Jefferson on Christianity. Dr. O'Hair also presents two handwritten facsimiles of Lincoln's Gettysburg Address in which the phrase "under God" is not present.
