Erm, religion is mostly based on interpretations of barbaric texts by unelected morons.
In short "you cannot argue with god".

I hope you get the point. Otherwise I´m inclined to think you are to stupid to understand the simplest of arguments.

Democracy is not a system ever articulated in the foundational holy texts of Judaism, Christianity, or Islam.

Can religion exist alongside of democracy? Depends. Weak religion -- yes. Strong religion -- no, because strong, fundamentalist religion always leads to theocracies...

Early Americans, were made up of Dutch, Brits, Germans, Franks, Italians, Jews, etc. (not to mention every Christian denomination and sect). If this is not "unity in diversity" then I don't know what is? Even if all of these white cultural groups were all members of the KKK they would still be culturally diverse. Your idea that because the KKK existed there was no cultural diversity is absurd. It is you who suffers from liberal ahistoric constructionism.

It wasnt bc of KKK;) It was bc of the films that formed te Amercan "unity".
When all those ppl came there was no unity it took a long time n it was KKK-sympathizing films that founded tht unity 2 repeat myself. C the movies urself.
"Dutch, Brits, Germans, Franks, Italians, Jews" Mixing nationalites with religious one that's simply unprofessional. I dont know any country that's entirely made out of 1 homogeous group every country has had immigration so every country is somehow diverse

Two French Brothers from Lyon invented the motion picture in 1895, (The Lumieres). How did movies shape American diversity, if it began as a cultural collage?There were 56 signers of the Declaration of Independence in 1776. They were of different cultural backgrounds and religious backgrounds. Some were of Irish, British, German, Dutch inheritance etc... No country in Europe had a government this diversified. For crying out loud Calvin was never truly accepted in Geneva because he was French.

U can cry out loud as much as you want;) I dont know where to start. "Calvin was never truly accepted in Geneva because he was French"
Anachronic claim, saying one was France before Nationalism occur is reckless. Calvin fleed dued to his religious views. "Irish, British, German, Dutch..." Well those nationalities came after rose of nationalism. When nationalism rose ppl saw themselves as British, German etc. and not as Americans. It was KKK-influenced movies that created an American identity

the motion picture was not invented until the 19th century. So for 2 centuries American's did not have an identity? Talk about rewriting history.

The first Klan was assembled by Confederate veterans in 1865, and the US Goverment immediately enacted laws against this hate group. In 1870 and 1871 the federal government passed the Force Acts, which were used to prosecute Klan crimes. Prosecution and enforcement suppressed Klan activity.
