You said — “Those who took up the cause of the American Revolution were also in the minority at the time, and look what they accomplished.”

The leaders were Christians and they believed in forming this nation under Christian principles and doctrines and established in the schools in the nation the Bible as a textbook as they figured that it was important for all the people to be trained in what the Bible taught.

The culture of that time *did* believe in the Creator God of the Bible and also they prayed that the Creator God of the Bible would help them found this new nation and once founded would help maintain it.

Today, the leaders of this nation want to remove the Bible and anything it says from all things in the government and have nothing at all to do with the training of the people.

In light of that, the Bible says that a nation who has leaders who are fools — this will cause the people to suffer. We will suffer as a result of these fools who want to abandon God in this nation. As long as this nation goes that route — *no minority* of people (Christian or otherwise) will overcome what the fools have done. And God will bring judgement upon the whole nation, as a result.

It does seem that Obama is that judgement that God has brought upon this nation...

And then you said — “It doesn’t matter that the majority are composed of idiots, traitors, and fools - it is right and proper to fight for this.”

It’s not right to fight an armed revolution against our government if that’s what you’re saying. On the other hand, it’s right and proper to fight for what is a proper government — “one nation under God” — through the means that were given to us by the founding fathers. But, this will fail — unless — our nation, as a whole turns back to God. That’s the *key issue* and short of that — all else will fail — whether it’s a majority or minority.

No one will prevail against God’s judgement of this nation if people continue down this pathway of abandoning God and the Bible in the public sphere and in this government and in the schools...

And, once again, it does appear that Obama is part of God’s judgement against this nation for turning away from Him...

Star, you answered the points I made in a religious context, which is fine, but the point I made earlier is that a committed minority who are in the right, and who are determined to fight for right, can (and have) prevailed against a majority, who are in the wrong.

The brave people who prevailed against the British Empire to create this country waged just such a fight.

You can contend that we are outnumbered, and have no hope of success in this fight, but do not attempt to persuade us that our cause is without merit.
