1. making sure the proper pronunciation of his name is not available.
2. that all his teaching are not preserved in an easy to discern manner so that ther is no confusion.

The American Constitution versus the 'Kingdom of God'.
by yadda yadda 2 ini thought this comparison between the american constitution and the 'kingdom of god' was very interesting from an article in this ex-mormon's excellent website http://packham.n4m.org/us-xian.htm.
the article notes how america's founding father's were deists, not bible-believing christians.. but our nation is also a system of government, not just a society.
the constitution is about government, not about society.
