That no one had a right to rule over another man without their consent?

So it is you contention that the Founders were just amazing hypocrites. It would seem (to me) that returning to their homes to be waited on by slaves on a daily basis after penning lofty rhetoric about how no man had the right to rule them would pretty much discount statements they made concerning how, in principle, they were opposed to slavery. In practice they were clearly not.

To project our more enlightened view of the Declaration into their time is sick revisionism. Demanding that slavery was a stain on the character of the South while whitewashing the sins of our Nation as a whole. Those slaveowners were bad because of it, but my slaveowners were good in spite of it.

It might be that I did not see your question.

I've posted it probably 5 times since you've said that the "Founders" passed the NWO as a start to the end of slavery.

I would classify every man that was in the first and second congress as Founders.

You were doing better at backpedalling and ignoring the question altogether.

Slavery was legal in every colony at the time of the Constitution, how many outlawed it?

In fact, many in the Southern states at the time of the Civil war wanted to end it as well, including Lee.

I guess he was a hypocrite also, since he did not believe in slavery or secession yet still fought for the South.

And If I had seen your 'deep''profound'questions I would have answered it.

Stephens states very clearly that the Founders did want to end slavery, that they had compromised with the Constitution but that slavery was never intended to last forever.

Stephens proudly states that the Founders erred in this and that slavery was made explict instead of inplicit in the Confederate Constitution.

Well, if you have some profound point to make instead of blowing hot air.

The Founders intended to end slavery.

I posted a list of men who were anti-slavery who were considered Founders.

Stephens agrees with my view, that the Founders did believe that all men were created equal before God.

Stephens states that slavery was the primary issue of the Civil War.

And the deep South states state the same.

So, if you have some great point to make, that will prove Stephens wrong, please, let us see it!

If not, don't bother me with your gnat-straining nonsense.
