28. This whole "founded as a christian nation"

Where do they get this horseshit from? Is it because it was the most popular faith in the colonies and the newly formed U.S.? That doesnt mean shit in our founding documents. In fact, a case can be made that "endowed by their Creator", ( the capital c was added in the final draft by a "politician". ) simply means a person's parents. Because you are a human being, you have certain rights that cannot be denied by any government or any other human being.

Simply put: I am not hurting anyone else or infringing on their basic human rights so fuck off and worry about your own shit.

I guess when you say you are a Christian but you don't follow and live by the teachings of Jesus Christ, anything is possible.
