Politically, religiously, even ethnically
So Thomas, if a communist were to ask me, "Would you make my speech illegal?"
I should then respond, "No, but I will remove the causal factors leading you to become a communist."
The truth as far as morality or religion? Is it possible the State can define the truth about family, lifestyle, and duty without defining what faith most accurately worships Christ or gets the creation right?
@Smiter-IL I believe the State has every right to make actions illegal. Where the line is drawn between speech and action is something to be defined.
@Thomas Ryan that all depends on the composition of the state. I don’t have a problem with compromises
Regardless: a state is always going to have a way of defining its sovereign good - from which it will be punishable to dissent. Our government very much does this as you all know. It isn’t called a state religion but you might as well think of it that way.
Wrong school
University of south florida
Not florida state
I updated it
Idk why it's not previewing
@NDO Nick-TX When Thomas Jefferson was talking about equality, I think he was referencing the forces of nature. The same forces that created me are the same forces that created you. That's what he meant by being created equally. He was arguing against Divine Right of Kings and pointing out that in the eyes of god men are men regardless of title.
You could also argue it was always more about equality before the law, than equality of value.
Yeah, I think that was the maxim he was invoking.
In essence, the following concept is what the enlightenment was supposed to be about:
"True law is right reason in agreement with nature; it is of universal application, unchanging and everlasting; it summons to duty by its commands, and averts from wrong-doing by its prohibitions. And it does not lay its commands or prohibitions upon good men in vain, although neither have any effect on the wicked. It is a sin to try to alter this law, nor is it allowable to attempt to repeal a part of it, and it is impossible to abolish it entirely. We cannot be freed from its obligations by Senate or People, and we need not look outside ourselves for an expounder or interpreter of it. And there will not be different laws at Rome and at Athens, or different laws now and in the future, but one eternal and unchangeable law will be valid for all nations and all times, and there will be one master and ruler, that is, God, over us all, for He is the author of this law, its promulgator, and its enforcing judge. Whoever is disobedient is fleeing from himself and denying his human nature, and by reason of this very fact he will suffer the worst penalties, even if he escapes what is commonly called punishment . . ."
-- Marcus Tullius Cicero, Republic, The Laws, 59 - 47 B.C.
The 1st Amendment to the Bill of Rights is in line with the 1st Commandment of the Bible, too. Both the 1st Amendment and 1st Commandment are in line with the above quote.

Decent article with decent points made. Can't say I find a huge issue with any of it.
Why does it feel like Cicero is talking about Christ in 47 B.C.?
I think the quote is insightful, though. Essentially, no State can alter or rewrite the true binding laws of humanity that are written by nature, or a higher power.
We can only discover the laws of nature, not write them.
Government is supposed to be a steward of the law.
Guys.
I'm worried about Nov 4.
Like what if it's a trap?
How would it be a trap? And what evidence points to it being a trap?
Just a gut feeling.
Like a police trap.
I'm not saying people shouldn't go to Texas.
Just be careful.
Don't fall for traps.
Define "police trap"
Like they start a riot, and then everyone gets busted.
Going by all the information we've collected, much of it reliable, that is very unlikely, if not entirely out of the equation.
I'm debating with a faggot right now. He believes all jews are white. I need qualified back up.
My research and articles are in a storage unit.
He's white. Scandavian.
Lol
Pretty sure Jewish research institutes have said they arent White
