In this episode of One Nation, Indivisible, host Andrew Seidel unpacks the historical and modern implications of the U.S. Constitution’s deliberate exclusion of references to God or Jesus. He dismantles the long-standing myth that George Washington added “So help me God” to the presidential oath—tracing this falsehood back to Washington Irving’s embellishments—and explores how this fabricated tradition has endured over time.
Andrew also examines pivotal moments in American history where the use of secular versus religious language in government has been fiercely debated, shedding light on the ongoing struggle against Christian nationalism. Tune in for a deep dive into why the framers intentionally kept religion out of the Constitution and why protecting that foundation remains crucial today.
