He played the best 9D chess by having his own administration rig the election against him. That rascal.

Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.
John Adams.
I always get a hearty chuckle when I see this Adams quote used to support the notion that the USA was "founded as a Christian nation."

Most posters on this forum would not consider Adams to have been a "Christian." He was a devout Unitarian. He rejected both the doctrine of the Trinity and the divinity of Jesus of Nazareth. If he were to have been able to argue his views on this forum, his posts would have been downvoted in overwhelming ratios, and he doubtless would have been awarded any number of uncomplimentary epithets.

Apparently, some posters struggle with the notion that the term "moral and religious" is not limited to Trinitarian Christianity.

i think it's an uncomfortable truth for some of you to hear this, but this country was founded as a Christian nation.


In his first term as president, Thomas Jefferson declared his firm belief in the separation of church and state in a letter to the Danbury, Conn. Baptists. He said: “Believing with you that religion is a matter which lies solely between man and his God, that he owes account to none other for his faith or his worship, that the legislative powers of government reach actions only and not opinions, I contemplate with sovereign reverence that act of the whole American people which declared that their legislature should `make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof,’ thus building a wall of separation between church and state.”

Treaty of Tripoli ratified by the US Senate in 1797:
“As the Government of the United States of America is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion,—as it has in itself no character of enmity against the laws, religion, or tranquillity of Mussulmen [Muslims],—and as the said States never have entered into any war or act of hostility against any Mahometan nation, it is declared by the parties that no pretext arising from religious opinions shall ever produce an interruption of the harmony existing between the two countries.”

James Madison:
“Religion is wholly exempt from the cognizance of civil society… The Religion then of every man must be left to the conviction and conscience of every man.”

“Who does not see that the same authority which can establish Christianity, in exclusion of all other Religions, may establish with the same ease any particular sect of Christians, in exclusion of all other Sects?”

Its why many of us have gone from conservatives to reactionaries.

Gay marriage has got to go, it was the moment when the government declared there were no natural laws, that religion, culture, and history were things that they wished to change.

In a society, there can be no balance if Gay Marriage exists. It will continue to tip to the left.

The liberals declared that slippery slope arguments were wrong.

We are now on a steep slope, it will be hard to keep the country from destruction unless we push back the last 20 years of leftist progress.

We have never been a theocracy. You have good people. You have bad people. It's that simple. They're bad from inception. You plastering the Ten Commandments everywhere won't make a bit of difference. You act like people doing horrible things is a recent occurrence. It isn't.

Hell is the absence of God. Joe Biden and the democrats kicked God out of this country. President Trump and MAGA invited God back.

The results speak for themselves. President Trump has reasserted the rule of law in many democrat led cities. As in their streets are safe again. Especially Washington, D.C.

Now he's going about the business of stopping the Fentanyl shipments from China through Venezuela. Fentanyl addiction is truly horrible. What it doesn't kill outright, it turns into Zombies. Those poor people.

Her name was Jocelyn Nungaray

President Trump is right about........everything.

I'm not sure what the solution is


Ive seen ICE driving around a few times the past weeks, and local news showed them teargassing some Karens who tried to stop them from rounding up some illegals

This seems like a perfectly acceptable solution to me, just need to continue breaking their will and getting the trash out of the country
