Michael No where in the Bible does it declare that a specific amount of water sufficient to submerge the body is required to authenticate baptism.
No where in the Bible does it declare that baptism is to be authenticated by verbal means of the sinner.
"America's founding fathers expected our nation to be (on the whole) Christian, and our government to reflect that bias. This appears to be a reasonable understanding of the First Amendment—far more reasonable than asserting that it erected an impenetrable wall of separation."
Lastly, as regards the RCC your interpretation of history is at odds with the truth.
