Now why didn’t I think of that? If the Founders are dead, who cares what they thought? Thanks for enlightening me, that it doesn’t matter one way or another what the dead white guys intended.

You’re welcome.

You’re quite right, and so am I, that it doesn’ matter what they intended, because what matters is what we did, and that’s the reality of it.

It’s kind of like the way God created man, then set us on our own with free will. We are free to make decisions that save us, and we are free to make decisions that damn us. Yes, we can read the Bible and see what his intentions were for us, but that’s no guarantee that we will precisely follow, is it?

We are own our own.

Our freedom is our responsibility.
