The pattern is always the same: make a grand claim about America's "Christian founding," cite a source few people will check, and hope nobody reads the original text.
Unfortunately for them, some of us actually do.
David Barton's pseudo-historian son Tim got caught citing a fake quote.
He held up a book of sermons, claimed it inspired the Declaration of Independence, and quoted words that aren't in the text.
This is Christian Nationalist "history" in a nutshell.

Tim Barton attributed famous Declaration language to a colonial sermon. There's just one problem: It's nowhere in the text.
