You gotta be shitting me with your strawmen.

[kapachangos]

so Jefferson wasnt the deist who edited a special gospel that disregards Jc as son of god?

[OccamsView]

So, what do all us other religions and cultures and non-religious, who arrived in America since its foundation, do now? What do all those who decide christianity is not for them do now? None of us are remotely interested in your religion or its eternal threats, and never will be.

How does coming on to youtube with a video such as this serve to unify us a one country, with acceptance of all others, be they a different religion or atheist or anything in between.

This was plain ignorant.

[Galahad747]

You're correct only in the title of this post, we are currently a Christian nation, although unconstitutionally. The US constitution is suppose to be the supreme law of the USA. Now in the US constitution is the Est. Clause which is meant to prohibit the preference by the US government of one religion over another. In this day an age it's pretty much political suicide to admit being anything other than Christian. Christianity only really took off in the US after the civil war to promote unity.

Another idiot with money.

[Isaiah122]

Many of these political leaders were great men (By the world’s standard), but they held to a Deistic, Unitarian, Masonic belief of a "Supreme Architect", while denying the divinity of Jesus Christ, the Trinity and many other essential teachings of Christianity.

The history of Christianity in America is real and doesn't need to be fabricated by misrepresentation of historical facts. The column of the political establishment, past and present, are by-and-large unchristian.

[Isaiah122]

Continued - The Pilgrims were a courageous group of people, which passed on a wonderful legacy to subsequent generations of Americans. One being that of the world’s greatest group of Christian evangelistic in history. This column of American history is indeed Christian. The column of political leaders, which are so well known to most Americans, were often far from being Christian. Please don’t believe me, do you own research. - Continued on next post -

[Isaiah122]

The fact is many of the key leaders of the [political] establishment of the United States: George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Paine, were not believers in Jesus Christ and didn't accept the orthodox teachings of Biblical Christianity (The Virgin birth of Christ, Jesus’ Resurrection, Substitutionary Atonement, etc).

The true founders of America, the Pilgrims, were indeed Christian.

@1105Chance Well, since the very simple example of Apollo is apparently too much for you, the next best way to prove me right is to apply science to Christianity. I guarantee you none of the scientists you listed would dare do that. You can be a respected scientist in a field unrelated to your religion. It's called compartmentalization. Get any one of them to look at their religion scientifically & see what happens.

[1105Chance]

@Kllgg And your still running away with Apollo because your original comment about Christianity was shit! I have to go, there's life beyond Youtube. Only atheists come here to die.
