A bunch of selective nonsense. The Supreme Court building was...(drum roll please)...built between 1932 and 1935. That's hardly proof that this was founded as a "Christian nation."
James Madison isn't exactly a poster child for religion. He not only was staunchly opposed to tax exempt statuses for religion, but also had the following to say:
"What influence, in fact, have ecclesiastical establishments had on society? In some instances they have been seen to erect a spiritual tyranny on the ruins of the civil authority; on many instances they have been seen upholding the thrones of political tyranny; in no instance have they been the guardians of the liberties of the people. Rulers who wish to subvert the public liberty may have found an established clergy convenient auxiliaries. A just government, instituted to secure and perpetuate it, needs them not." - James Madison, "A Memorial and Remonstrance", 1785
"Experience witnesseth that ecclesiastical establishments, instead of maintaining the purity and efficacy of religion, have had a contrary operation. During almost fifteen centuries has the legal establishment of Christianity been on trial. What has been its fruits? More or less, in all places, pride and indolence in the clergy; ignorance and servility in the laity; in both, superstition, bigotry and persecution." - James Madison, "A Memorial and Remonstrance", 1785
Secondly, that supposed quote from James Madison in support of the Ten Commandments is a hoax.

Patrick Henry's quote in favor of religion in society is in keeping with his character, but his opinion was a minority opinion not taken seriously by the majority of the Founding Fathers. They had religious fanatics 200 years ago, just like we have today.
