He is an American hero.

That's nice. Maximilien François Marie Isidore de Robespierre was a Hero of "Liberte, Egalite, et Fraternite.

Both of them were rebels.

Somebody on this thread asserted "The Bible always notes that God is not happy with rebellion. Rebellion is in the domain of Satan."

He and the American Fathers will have to answer to God for fomenting rebellion, against the counsel of Scripture.

OK ... so what do you say? Were they wrong to foment rebellion? Would a hypothetical "we", in the present day, be wrong to "foment rebellion" against a government which behaved similarly to the government of King George III?

Your final paragraph is a colossal irrelevancy.

You didn't answer my question: What do YOU think about
Scripture saying you will answer for your actions. I don't
accept your proposition that it is irrelevant. It is
the most important question you will ever answer. Trying
to avoid it simply shows where you are. Trying to avoid it
now does not mean you will will never have to answer it.

The War of Independence was known in England as “The Presbyterian Rebellion.”

It figures they’d blame the Calvinists.
