One of my favorite quotes along those lines from George Carlin...

“Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.”​

I miss George. Would be nice to have him commenting on our crappy predicament. He would be ripping them a new one and there would nothing they could do to shut him up. I smile imagining his verbal characterization of Trump and his minions. It would be brutal.
Deal with the commercials… you can skip them. A good Carlin take.

Oh, I don't know. Remember when Obama deployed a personal army fully under the control of the executive in the rural counties across America that have crime rates far higher than any city? Remember when Kamala incited her followers to assault law enforcement officers and violently invade the Capitol to prevent Congress from certifying the results of the 2024 election? Remember when Biden tore down 1/3 of the White House to build a dedicated space for drag queen story hour? Remember when the liberals on the Supreme Court voted to remove a woman's right to make decisions about her own body, a right that had been recognized for almost 50 years? Remember when Hillary and Ash Carter used our military assets to blow god knows who out of the water in the gulf Obama had unilaterally renamed?

I mean, it's not like liberals have NEVER governed by fiat.
Those were good times...

What fucking idiots. Talk about sheep...

The maga cult doesn't understand that freedom of religion is more encompassing than just their religion.
A lot of Christian’s really believe the US was founded as a Christian nation and the founding fathers didn’t really want separation of church and state.

Wish I had the time to go back and study all of that but I have too many other things to do.

I can save you the time. If you did go back to study, you would find that, no, the US was not founded as a Christian nation but as a nation of religious freedom that is completely separate from the state/politics.

These people would all be shocked if they knew just how many of the Founding Fathers and Framers of the Constitution were not conventional, church-going, or mainstream Christians. Televangelists and right-wing colleges like Liberty U. and right-wing think tanks like the Heritage Foundation have made a major effort over the years to make it seem as if separation of church and state is some kind of historical myth, when it simply is not.

Yea, I was told and believed that when I was in the church. Reading helped me to understand it was a lie.

It's too early for research but, iirc, Rodney Stark who has studied to growth of Christianity from its beginning estimate about a quarter of Americans were church members at the time the Constitution was ratified. It was under 10% in NC and Georgia.

I've read that in a number of places that the percentage of Americans who regularly went to church and were active Christians was much smaller in the colonial period than it was later in the 19th and most of the 20th Centuries. And that was especially true, ironically, in the Southern colonies.

That's because virtually every idea behind the Constitution occurred during The Great American Enlightenment from about 1770-1820 or so, which was bookended by the first two waves of the Great Awakening , a return to the worst excesses of Christianity. Just like when you have more Republicans, the country has less money, when you have more Christians, the country has less progress. They're all a pack of retromingent revanchists who won't let decent people alone.
