Just like a more recent example, Rockefeller (succeeded by Bill Gates) was considered the most evil man in America; the establishment gave Rockefeller a "face lift", put him in a sweater, patting little kiddies on the head, turned him into a philanthropist, and just like that, the once hated man became loved by all.

    In CONTEXT! Freedom of religion pertained ONLY to the Christians sects. The 1st Amendment did not say freedom of RELIGIONS! Patrick Henry wrote his freedom speech based on the whipping to DEATH of a Baptist minister in Culpepper County, Va. because he refused to get a LICENSE required by the Anglican Church of England to preach anything other than the Anglican doctrine. Baptists were persecuted in mid 1700s as also proven by historical marker at Chesterfield County Courthouse, Virginia where 3 Baptist ministers were put on trial for refusing a license to preach. All other faiths/ religions are REPUGNANT to Christianity where Jesus Christ is the ONLY WAY and contradiction is a blasphemy. You must read "Free, White & Christian" by Weisman to understand the requirements to govern in America and confirmed by "posterity" in the Preamble and again in the US Supreme Court decision of Dredd Scott v. Sanford.... "Under our Constitution, the colored races could be a subject but could never be a United States Citizen." Dred Scott v. Sandford, 19 How 393, 404-05 (1857). "Citizens are natives or naturalized. All persons born in the United States are not citizens; the exceptions are, first, children of foreign ambassadors; secondly, Indians; and thirdly, in general, persons of color." (1st Bouv. Inst. pp. 16, 64; Amy v. Smith, 1 Litt. Ky. R. 334.) "Negroes or other slaves born within and under the allegiance of the United States are natural born subjects, not citizens. Citizens under our constitution mean free inhabitants born within the United States, or naturalized under the law of Congress." (2 Kent's Com. p. 258, note b.) Free blacks are not citizens within the provisions of the constitution, art. 4, sec. 2. So held by Dagget, Ch. J., in Connecticut. (See note Kent's Com. supra.) And by the Supreme Court of Tennes see, in The State v. Claibourne, 1 Meigs. 331. (See the official opinion of Attorney General Wirt, November 7th, 1821.--Opinions of the Attorney Gen eral, vol. 1, page 382, edition 1841, and vol. 1, page 506, Hall's edition of 1852.

    United Staters need to understand that America is a continent-not a country. Americans are ppl from Alaska all the way south to the southern tip of the continent. The first permanent European settlement, in what is now the United States OF America, is St. Augustine, Florida. It was founded in 1565 by the Spanish-decades before any OTHER Europeans set foot on American soil. The Spanish stayed. Please note the word ‘OF ‘ with double emphasis. It is a part of speech -preposition. Now you can go back to arguing who the OTHER European settlers in America were-whether English, Scots, Irish, Germans, French, Italians. . .

    Livingston said, "The North was silent on slavery until the abolitionist movement arose in New England in 1830 led by William Lloyd Garrison." There are several misunderstandings in the one sentence. First the abolitionist movement started in 1767 on the Delmarva in Maryland when the Third Haven Meeting decided that all Friends who held slaves would free them. Very soon after that all Quakers in Maryland who held slaves freed them. The action spread among Methodists on the Delmarva as well, by 1800 multiple counties on the Delmarva had more free blacks than slaves. Yet, before that, Pennsylvania enacted gradual emancipation in 1780, before the U S Constitution was ratified. Thus, the first leaders were John Woolman, Anthony Benezet, and Freeborn Garrettson. The 1810 U. S. census counted 180,000 free blacks with the largest state population in Maryland, which is a Southern state. There were so many free blacks that The American Colonization Society (ACS) was founded in 1816 to arrange for the shipment of free blacks to Africa. Southerners James Monroe, Henry Clay and Francis Scott Key founded the ACS. They were appalled by the large number of free blacks in Washington D.C. and Baltimore. Black American leaders in Philadelphia rejected ACS plans. Methodist intenerate preachers proselytized against slavery, while welcoming blacks into their church. Richard Allen, Daniel Coker and another black Methodist attended the Christmas Conference in Baltimore in 1784, which was the genesis of the Methodist church in America. Garrison's influence is overstated. Abolitionists, including Salmon Chase took over the Ohio state government in 1850. They repealed the black laws and set up an educational system, which soon attracted 10,000 young black students. One of the seats of the Second Great Awakening was Oberlin. Southerner politicians were appalled at the pace of moral reform. Lincoln's role is overstated, as well. Chase, Gerit Smith and the Teppans were leaders.

    This is some of the most polished lost cause propaganda I have ever heard in my entire life. And I have heard a lot of it. While there are definitely some indisputable facts presented in this video, there is also embellishment, and as I said earlier, propaganda and dis/misinformation. The idea that virginians or any other Southerner was content to allow international affairs to simply pass them by as a joke. It is very well documented that southern politicians and planters wanted very much to capture islands in the Caribbean, all the way to northern South America. It was a dream that they called the golden circle. They did not simply talk about this dream in the halls of Congress and in one another's parlors as they smoke cigars and sipped brandy. Southern citizens, particularly of the elite planter class, funded, and what otherwise materially supported filibusters such as William Walker invaded Nicaragua, and Costa Rica in an attempt to add them to the United States as slave states. So no, your beloved Virginians and other fellow southerners were not content to be hands off. When it came to the international arena. they very much wanted to participate in the imperialism that dominated much of the nineteenth century.

    24:10: "...a state enforcing religious practices such as the sabbath." This is a misrepresentation. Jefferson's statute on religious freedom merely sought to punish "Sabbath-breakers" who disrupted any legitimate religious practices, emphasis on protecting the rights of the church attendees, rather than seeking to punish those who chose to "break the sabbath" by not attending church. It is absolutely vital to identify what is meant by a "Sabbath-breaker". Simply put: Jefferson was opposed to punishing people for not attending church on the sabbath. I hope the United States will always protect such freedoms.

    Leftists have tried to highjack Jefferson. The Clovis -19 stupor demonstrated Jefferson's objective with his declaration of the Separation of Church & State: the "Church of England's advent was due to the Papal lies & deception, about marriage in the particular of Henry Vlll. Henry seceded from papal authority. The "church" of England after the cooling down of the Reformation, became, indeed, just another plumb bureaucratuc job, and answered to the King, a mortal. With no separation of Church, (which is inviolate and a refuge & sanctuary), & State the church is just anither tentacle of Royal/Federal power. When the quasi governmental agencies and then jumped-up bureaucratz & politicians began dictating what churches ought to do in regards to the covid Boogeyman, most of the padtors & priests went right along with the nonsenses of masking, distancing, & quarantine. This is just what the diabolical puppeteers of federal & world govt' wanted to see - how many were brainwashed and compliant.

    Aside from Mama, who came here after marrying Pop in '92, most of this Reformed postmillennial Calvinist's ancestors followed one of two paths: Either they came from Lowland Scotland as Presbyterians to Northern Ireland to Pennsylvania down through Virginia and into western North Carolina or they came from England as Anglican indentured servants to Northern Virginia to upcountry South Carolina (where they became Presbyterians) to western North Carolina, where I was born and raised. Virginia holds a very special place in my heart, and I get a warm feeling when I read about my ancestors who worked for their freedom, raised families, worshiped in church, and forged a legacy in Fairfax County. By the American War for Independence, they were all upcountry Overmountain Men from South Carolina or Scots-Irish Presbyterians in Charlotte, North Carolina, but Virginia runs through the veins and in the heart of this hillbilly from Franklin, North Carolina. I love the theology of the Puritans and Pilgrims, but I'm admittedly relieved not to have a drop of Massachusetts blood in my body. Oliver Cromwell was my twelfth great grandfather, of which I'm proud, for his faith, but my ancestors in between the two of us came to, you guessed it, Virginia.

    Lincoln’s words at the Hampton Roads peace conference of 1865 are more revealing of his perspective on black rights than was anything he said at Gettysburg. His actual views on the subject (black rights) need to be distinguished from mere political rhetoric. Lee argued for gradually implemented universal (Confederate) emancipation in a letter to Andrew Hunter of January 1865. It was approximately one month later that Lincoln proposed a delayed emancipation of 5 years at the Hampton Roads meeting with Confederate leaders. (Secretary of State Seward reminded the Confederates at that meeting that the South could block ratification of the 13th Amendment by returning to the Union.)

    • @BabyGirlDontEvenPlay

      Who cares what Lee wanted? The CSA Constitution codified slavery into law. It only banned the importation from "any foreign nation other than the slave holding states or territories of the United States of America". Interesting that the Confederacy thought it was going to maintain a slave-trade economy with the United States after the war.
