*I'M* not the one chopping up the words of the Founders to suit my own selfish purposes.

If all men are created equal, they must have had a Creator, don't you think?

I haven't messed with the sense of what they wrote at all. You have.

The removal of reverence for God, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, and of our founders, leads to disrespect for the lives of those who have been created in His Image. The loss of all liberty soon follows. That's the pattern of history. And the Founders knew it, even before the massive evidence of the history of the last couple of hundred years was amassed.

You're avoiding the issue. Namely, that quote-mining is a deceitful, yet oft-used tactic of the anti-science crowd. It's bad enough when you do it to the words of scientists, but you've shown that even the words of the Founders are not off-limits to this despicable practice.

I haven't messed with the sense of what they wrote at all. You have.

That's a lie. I haven't "messed with" any of their words. I'm trying to defend them from your twisting influence. It's okay. It's the least I can do for them.
