Look at the 10 Commandments that the fundies want to put up at every turn.

No worshipping of other gods VS First Amendment.
No graven images (artwork) VS First Amendment.
No false oaths - Supported in contract law
Keep the sabbath - not enforced
Honor mother & father - not enforced
No killing - Supported
No adultery - not enforced
No stealing - Supported
No false witness - Supported in perjury law
No coveting - Repudiated in capitalist system

So, out of the 10 Commandments, four are held up in our system of government. Interestingly, the four are the ones that are the most secular - honor your contracts, don't kill people, don't steal from people, and don't lie about other people.

The "Based on Christian Principles" meme is bullshit.
