One of their Reps was on H&C and he said they were getting quite a few e-mails from Liberals virtually volunteering to help them pack. In any case this isn't all that different from what the Mormons have going in Utah is it?
Just remember what happened the last time a stae wanted to secede from the union...
Or the liberals in large cities. Or the gays in tourist cities.
They need to move to an island and start the govt. The civil war was fought to prevent any secession by any group.
Hmmmmm. I thought the Free Staters wanted to do the same. Wonder why they didn't hook up and choose the same state?
2 With a mighty voice he shouted:
"Fallen! Fallen is Babylon the Great!
She has become a home for demons
and a haunt for every evil spirit,
a haunt for every unclean and detestable bird.
3 For all the nations have drunk
the maddening wine of her adulteries.
The kings of the earth committed adultery with her,
and the merchants of the earth grew rich from her
excessive luxuries."
4 Then I heard another voice from heaven say:
"Come out of her, my people,
so that you will not share in her sins,
Sounds like the pre-cursor of some strange cult...
Aren't the Free Staters Libertarians? They wouldn't get along too well with Fundamentalists.
The philosophy behind it is really not very much like the philosophy of Chrisitianity. Jesus told his followers to go where the sinners are. Christians gathering together in SC to segregate themselves from the rest of the world is not what Christ had in mind.
They do but I don't think they would agree with this group. Either way it's promising news there's more than one group
Sorry for the duplicate replies. FR is kinda funky today.

I thought it was like the Jews moving from Gaza to the main part of Israel, God Bless them.
That passage is about the Catholic Church. God calls it "adultery" because the church used to be married to her, but she like the power of politics better. The Vatican is a wordly State.
I should have prefaced my comment with the passage I was referring to:
Revelation 18

I thought the Civil War was fought over states rights. In any case, as a South Carolinian, I would welcome any new comers who are willing to promote and protect the proud heritage South Carolina has had for so long.
