Did you just need to feel heard on this, or are you trying to disprove anything in the post you quoted?

At the end of the day, it was founded as a Christian nation while protecting the citizens from demands that they be Christians, or even specific types of Christians.

The US constitution is a secular document, not mentioning Christianity, God, or Jesus. Article 6 prohibits religious tests to hold office (meaning there can not be a national religion established). The first amendment establishes the “establishment clause” as well as the “free exercise clause”, if you need me to explain to you what that means, I will, but for now I’ll assume you know. The unanimously ratified Treaty of Tripoli states "The Government of the United States of America is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion".

If you want to delve more into the debates the FF had on this, and the conclusions from those debates, I’d love to talk about that as well, just let me know if you’re game.

Now, I want to hear why you defend the position that the US WAS established as a Christian nation other than the fact that it’s the majority religion.

I think you've made a better argument than any I've heard to the counter. I think that's a finer degree of specificity than my statement that America was established as a Christian nation. I concede that.

He had the right to peaceably counter protest but only idiots would put themselves in this situation. (Just like the woman who hit the ice cop with her suv)

I don't think BLM protest can be compared to this. BLM was an emotional eruption of frustration built up from a series of heavily publicized murders/incidents.
I can see why the legitimate supporters of BLM were extremely angry and there was violence. (I did not support it; but I see how it happens)

This Minn. bs is embarrassing, $18 billion dollars in fraud and the government turning an eye to keep the voting blocks.
What's happening here is a result of these people never having consequences for their actions. It's time to arrest anyone that becomes violent on either side.
Violence is never the answer; but it does become a solution in some people mind. This has to stop before it erupts into chaos.
The Insurrection Act needs to be put in place and this needs to be put to rest.

John Adams and the 1797 Congress, raised themselves from the dead to say that public education failed you.
