Well thats good I am not as learned as you remember this is the way I learn I am an immigrant ,it is learning for me and I find you folks are very intelligent and interesting, so I mostly listen and digest what I can.I did see her remark but it didnt sink in, so I could use you guys explaining. I appreciate you are busy.... catch you when I can ...
:) I'll try to get back this afternoon....In the meantime, there are some interesting things that were already posted that haven't been touched on. flmagi's post, has some things that would be interesting to discuss. For instance, I personally disagree with the analogy of "Christian Nation/ White Nation." How do you feel about that analogy? That could lead to an interesting discussion if you are up to it. I am having my coffee and have to run otherwise I would comment on it too. And yes, I appreciate that you fight tooth and nail for our Country:)
Seeya later, if not probably tomorrow.

"....The eminent American historian Richard B. Morris, in his 1973 book Seven Who Shaped Our Destiny: The Founding Fathers as Revolutionaries, identified the following seven figures as the key founding fathers: Benjamin Franklin, George Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, John Jay, James Madison, and Alexander Hamilton.[3]...."
"....Some of the more prominent Founding Fathers were anti-clerical or vocal about their opposition to organized religion, such as Thomas Jefferson[12][13] (who created the "Jefferson Bible"), and Benjamin Franklin[14]. However, other notable founders, such as Patrick Henry, were strong proponents of traditional religion. Several of the Founding Fathers considered themselves to be deists or held beliefs very similar to that of deists.[15]...."
I provided information that suggests, possibly, a different agenda from the following 5 out of the 7.
Benjamin Franklin
George Washington
John Adams
Thomas Jefferson
James Madison
That's 5 out of 7 of the key founders so you really have to take that into consideration when you think..................oh never mind, that's not really relevant here.
Though I didn't spend any time finding my stuff I betcha someone did. You think? I betcha......... yes indeedy.
