The most significant influences on the Founding Fathers were an array of collectively expressed objective moral truths, spurring from personal accountability to their Creator. While not all Founding Fathers actively practiced their Christian faith, it was their belief and understanding that there existed a Supernatural eternal force responsible for the creation of the planet and everything that is known, including our free will. These inherent principles, alongside their personal upbringings, and the faith of the first Puritan settlements; were responsible for drafting the first charters, orders, and common laws; all based on oaths and covenants.
