Ok, so let's duly note your subtle shift away from your original theme, which was distinctly secular v. religious:
...and your ever-so-deft pivot back towards the safe and well-traveled footpath of INGO, namely, Libertarian objection to the overarching nanny state (and also duly note your failure to note which text of the Constitution is so irreconcilable with a secular society, before this thread goes the predictable 647-page route).
Hmph. All that struggle to get religion officially recognized on the forum...only to beat a safe retreat back into the Libertarian bushes at the first sign of critical examination? Tch, tch!
Ok.
Nice cast...happy trolling!
If you want to discuss the history of America, I can do that.
If you want to discuss secular vs. religious, I can do that.
If you want to discuss anrcho-capitalist stateless society vs. the state, I can do that.
If you're capable of attempting all 3 combined, I can do that.
Why do you believe those are mutually exclusive topics?
Where exactly was the critical examination which you believe I'm retreating from?
