Blake and Marshall begin our discussion of the notion of America as a Christian nation and the problem of defining what "Christian" would mean in this excerpt from Episode 301 ("The Founding Intent") of the United States of Amnesia podcast series "A Christian Nation?", which explores the view held by some Americans that the United States was founded as a Christian country.
