Indeed, but people feel freer here than on other forums. Less moderation, perhaps?
Sure is …
Sure is pointless-argument-time in here.
It isn’t YouTube’s …
It isn’t YouTube’s fault. It’s just one of hundreds of public forums (fora?) people argue on.
Though the shell …
Though the shell may belong to Great Britain, the eagle inside belongs to us!
“More current” and …
“More current” and also wrong.
So the f*** what if they changed their minds later on??? AT THE F***ING TIME THEY MADE THIS COUNTRY, which is the more important issue– they obviously thought better. And a good thing too, coz there would probably never have been a United States if they were as atheistic and anarchistic as you want them to have been.
Dry up.
People, people, …
People, people, people!
There’s no need to argue about things, and YouTube is hardly going to foster good debate or polite conversations on the best of days. Just chill and enjoy the awesome video that these folks have put a lot of work and effort into making.
Obama a true …
Obama a true Christian????
Right, and bin Laden is a devout Jew.
Actually, it is. …
Actually, it is. Remember Jeremiah “Wrong-minded” Wright?
Franklin was …
Franklin was actually a deist too. He believed that God made the earth, but then went off to do something else.
A daft view. What inventor creates something and then ignores it?
Patrick Henry made …
Patrick Henry made his stand for liberty on March 23 1775, now it’s Rand Paul’s turn with his next moneybomb !

Yeah, how can …
Yeah, how can people who oppose Socialism be classed as Socialists?
(For the uneducated– of whom there is a shocking amount– “Nazi” was short for the German for “National Socialist Party.”)
No, he didn’t go …
No, he didn’t go mad until 1800.
Trouble is, most …
Trouble is, most congressmen are in the Federal Government’s back pocket.
There is a movie …
There is a movie called “1776″; it was made in 1972.
You’re free to …
You’re free to speak, but if what you say has no demonstrable basis, when held up to the light of recorded history, then stand by for blasting.
Or would you be willing to provide evidence for your assertion?
And how about the …
And how about the black regiments of U.S. cavalry? I believe the most prominent regiment was the “Buffalo Soldiers.” Then there were the black cowboys who basically created the profession itself?
Are you nuts? Or do …
Are you nuts? Or do you mean Obama done up as George III?
I’m playing Caesar …
I’m playing Caesar Rodney in “1776.” I know what he gave up: a long, comfortable life with the prospect of medical treatment only available in England. He placed his country, whose birth hung on his vote, before himself.
The founders put …
The founders put machinery at work in the Constitution which they intended for one day to abolish slavery– and it did! In fact, John Adams made a very close prediction as to when it would happen.
All of Washington’s slaves were educated, and once he died, they were all set free, though one remained behind who had become devoted George’s bereaved widow and looked after her.
And I wonder how …
And I wonder how many people know that black men fought in the Civil War– on both sides!
Amen to all you …
Amen to all you said!
If Jefferson fell …
If Jefferson fell away in his later years, that’s tragic, but it doesn’t (indeed it can’t) take away the fact that the country was founded on Christian principles.
No, but it appears …
No, but it appears you respond to a reasoned, faith-based perspective. If you truly regarded this as superstition, to which you say you don’t respond, you wouldn’t have responded.
Uppercase and …
Uppercase and lowercase hadn’t been settled yet in writing by that time; names were sometimes written with lowercase first letters.
Just because they …
Just because they may have fallen away from truth (and you, by the way, have yet to prove that they did), that doesn’t mean to say that their earlier statements are less true.
