The one true god who created America as a shining city on a hill, through his apostles, the founding fathers. I think you'll find the 1st Amendment says no such thing; that was an interpretation recently corrected by the Supreme Court.

- Kye 4y agoThis is a great example of the issue. I don't have any issue with you being a bit of a nutter. I don't even mind you having representation in government! I just Don't want people like you you running the whole thing. I'd end up in a gas chamber quick, and I suspect most Christians would fail your test. I appreciate our tripartite system with all its goopy progress-slowing nonsense because while it slows down stuff I want, it gives people time to organize against stuff they don't. Like theocracy. edit: since HN won't let me reply... You misunderstand. It's about holding on to progress. It took decades for conservatives to dismantle the wins of the Civil Rights movement. Decades to start putting cracks in the progress for queer rights. And so on. Those wins were hard, and it took more work to undo them. And the undoing is so slow that there's still time to recover. That's the system your "apostles" created.
- hotpotamus 4y agoI wonder what it is you think you're progressing towards? And what you'd be willing to pay for it?
- hotpotamus 4y agoHave you considered that what you consider progress may be someone else's regress? And perhaps now we're back on the path of progress after decades of diversion?
