boatbums: "good link that gives quotations from many of the Founders and their faith..."

Nobody denies that our Founders were all Christians of one stripe or another.
But for many, and virtually all of the "top tier" Founders, their Christianity was influenced more-or-less by Enlightenment Age deism, Unitarianism and Freemasonry.

This puts them into the same category as yours truly, BroJoeK, and along with around 50 million "restorationist" Christians today makes us all, in Kevmo's words, "God Damned Heretics".

Seems to me Kevmo's is a totally unacceptable point of view, and you, boatbums, should have the courage to stand up and condemn it.

But you don't, do you?

Wrong, wrong, wrong! Where did you dig up this nonsense? The only Deist was Jefferson, and David Barton's latest book provides evidence against that.

"The Progressives within academia, politics, and the left-leaning media are concerned that religious ideas may receive too much attention or acceptance within the general culture." As William F. Buckley said "...what we're up against, and though the Academy and the judiciary, is a felt disappointment that the American Revolution was not the French Revolution, and a consequent attempt to Jacobinize the Constitution into religion and its influence are wholly vanished from our public life." This attempt to marginalize religion, or even exclude it from the public sphere is an unstated recognition that religious ideology has profound influence on the minds of people, ideas that might run counter to contemporary Progressive elitism." William F. Buckley

Have you ever heard the word anti-Christ? It means against Christ. The rejection of Christ as God come in the flesh is what you reject. When you reject who He is, then in reality you are rejecting His AUTHORITY.

Who would want to stand by someone opposed to Christ?

***My point of view is that you are a heretic for denying that Jesus is God. You can argue all you want against what you like to think is my point of view, but you can’t mind read and such bowlsheet isn’t even allowed on religion threads. You’re noticeably absent from religion threads because your bowlsheet isn’t tolerated.
