There is one founding document being over looked. Its one of the oldest and most used. Its called money. This founding document "money" has gone through various changes and " In God We Trust " was added over 150 years ago.
An Act of Congress passed on March 3, 1865, allowed the Mint Director, with the Secretary's approval, to place the motto on all gold and silver coins that "shall admit the inscription thereon".[8][10] In 1873, Congress passed the Coinage Act, granting that the Secretary of the Treasury "may cause the motto IN GOD WE TRUST to be inscribed on such coins as shall admit of such motto".
During the Cold War era, the government of the United States sought to distinguish itself from the Soviet Union, which promoted state atheism and thus implemented antireligious legislation.[12] The 84th Congress passed a joint resolution "declaring IN GOD WE TRUST the national motto of the United States". The law was signed by President Eisenhower on July 30, 1956.[13] The United States Code at 36 U.S.C. § 302, now states: "'In God we trust' is the national motto."
In God We Trust is still the national motto. No doubt the national motto will come under renewed attack as the hate America democrat anarchy party continues to scrub history.

152 years ago to be exact.
But considering the nations is 241 years old, the term is not foundational by any stretch of the imagination.
Even then it does not reference what god, or what kind of god. No direct reference to Christian distinctions at all.

Wouldn't it be easier to just add the link to the original Monty Pyton clip as opposed to trying to plagiarize it?
Monty who?
