Very comical. 
Please point to where in the Constitution or the Bill of Rights where Christianity is the national religion. Federal holidays have to do with the majority's religious beliefs. WE GET THE POINT. Do you have any other points. By the way Israel also doesn't have a state religion either, but was founded on Judaism.
Nice strawman argument at the end. Have you ever read up on the history of the Pledge of Allegiance or the motto "in God we Trust". Pretty interesting.
