You’re conflating the Revolution with the “Founding Fathers”, who were actually mainly associated with the constitution.
Which was in many ways the counter revolution, where the rich and propertied (like Washington) decided that the Revolution had gone too far, with Shay’s Rebellion and revolts against debt being the main driver of that.
oh totally - it’s just that the myth making of US history isn’t new, and part of why these grifters get away with this nonsense is that there’s been a fertile plot of bullshit for a long time.
But yeah, no, America was not founded as a “Christian nation”. Anyone thinking that is ignoring the Jefferson Bible, or the Treaty of Tripoli.

Yes thank you you are actually correct here I did in fact conflate the two.
I appreciate you pointing this out in a constructive and meaningful way.
Ultimately the point that I was trying to make is that a Preger is an idiot.
Him telling people that they need to do historical research on the American flag is the quintessential epitome of the pot calling the kettle black.

I kinda wonder why Trump hasn’t published a bible yet.
I’d guarantee it’d sell millions and not a single copy would be read.

Duct taping American gun lore to the KJV is top notch.
Makes me think Trump understands scripture better than most US bible school nerds.
