Re: the Government declaring the country was founded upon
    certain beliefs, and that it could (should?) be recognized
    as a "christian" country...

Look Ray,  

The Government of the United States represents the people.  To
declare itself to be of a certain religion when its people are
not would be unethical, to say the least.

What would you think if Ronnie (and Congress) decided this country
was founded on the principles of Satanism, or that the Government
is fundamentally Buddhist?
