Again and again you felt he need to scream at Conservative Christians with your own particular understanding?

If your stance is biblical - then God blessed Christians who sinned against His Word (and defying Romans 13) in their rebellion against the lawful, legal authority of the Crown by taking up arms against them.

Historically and biblically - your argument is moot except for those who like the Quakers, lectured for over a decade that the Colonists needed to simply submit to tyranny because they deserved it, rather than take a stand against it.

I’ll take Franklin’s admonition over your insistences: “Disobedience to tyrants, is obedience to God”. Our own history proved that out.

Submitting to the authority of tyrants, is breaking the First Commandment , something you are unwittingly advocating.
