There! I said it. Take it or leave it!
Wow!

I second that.

Fine with me. Btw, has anyone responded yet on the religious thread?

Looks like your effort here on this thread, is just as dead.

Generally I agree with you. If it had been only a few interactions I would hold my assessment.

But after over 15 years of debating him, it is quite clear to me, what and who he is. I witnessed boxcar insulting too many people to think it was only me he put down as his preferred modus operandidi

Don't let the past repeat

Remember, it didn't start with gas chambers. It started with politicians dividing the people with 'us vs. them.' It started with intolerance and hate speech and when people stopped caring, became desensitized and turned a blind eye.

Gas chambers???

The left doesn’t want to send you to extermination camps. They just want to take away your guns and religion then force you to bake cakes for homosexuals.

And use unisex bathrooms!

It evolved as the people allowed it to.
The lessons from that time period are the most important in history.

Quit flattering yourself already. You have never truly debated me in anything because your gun is always loaded with blanks.

So, now you think you're a clairvoyant and can read my intentions?

You really need to get over yourself.

Did they disrespect religion too?

There are also dozens of times recorded in Washington's personal diary where he stopped to pray with his troops during the Revolutionary War.

Hate to tell you this but the sources like Encyclopedia Britannica and other respected historians do not post on WND. Not ever

https://www.splcenter.org/fighting-h.../worldnetdaily


WorldNetDaily is an online publication founded and run by Joseph Farah that claims to pursue truth, justice and liberty. But in fact, its pages are devoted to manipulative fear-mongering and outright fabrications designed to further the paranoid, gay-hating, conspiratorial and apocalyptic visions of Farah and his hand-picked contributors from the fringes of the far-right and fundamentalist worlds.

OK. So if Washington were a deist, theist or atheist why would that matter?
