Conspiracy in Philadelphia

Samuel Adams did not attend the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia because he "smelt a rat". The American Covenanters identified the rat & boycotted the new Constitution.

One of them, the Rev. Samuel B. Wylie of Philadelphia, wrote Two Sons of Oil to chronicle the U.S. Constitution's offenses against Christ and His laws. It took more than a century for someone to detail the conspiratorial coup that produced the nation's foundational legal document.

In 2004, Gary North republished the last third of his Political Polytheism under the title Conspiracy in Philadelphia. Here is a brief excerpt giving the author's rationale:

This book is my attempt to explain this historical anomaly: a significant break in history that did not seem to be a break at the time. It still doesn’t. I explain it in a way that Dr. Dreisbach does not. He defends the traditional view of Protestant Christians in the United States. They have believed, from 1788 onward, that the United States has been a Christian nation under its Constitution. This is an odd belief on the face of it, since the United States Constitution’s sole reference to God is indirect: the words, “the year of our Lord,” referring to 1787. If this is the sole judicial basis of the Christian American national civil covenant, then the case for America as a Christian civil order rests on a very weak reed.
