Jon Harris is a boss, so glad to see him back on!
" Washington never got paid; he was there to serve"
And didn't Trump never get paid?
I don't know for certain but did hear back in 2016 that he would decline any salary for being President
More of these good discussions are needed.
Most everything we were taught about our history in public school they got wrong. Makes you wonder if that holds true to the histories of other people and other forms of governments we learned from them to hate. I'm guessing there might be some answers there that America sorely needs.
45:00 "we need to return to Scripture"
What government, what people, whose society did God wait for and turn to to bring Christianity into the world? Was Scripture needed to build it? What was needed?
Remember, the Founders did not look exclusively at religion in crafting their documents.
Some countries are already 90+% Christian. Would you want your family to live there? Why not?
County before country.
Family before county.
If you don't start their, it won't work. It doesn't work. It is not working. I'm certain of that. Isn't that pretty much the teaching of the Old Testament on that subject?
I admit there does seem to be something wrong in the North East. I think the answer isn't simple. It's really frustrating.
This is probably my new favorite video on the internet. It touches on so many related topics that tie in to so many of my interests and passions, from the Puritans to the American founding to historical Virginia to Jeffersonian federalism to the Confederacy to postmillennialism. I wish my fellow Confederate descendants who teach our children to love and learn from the example of our Confederate ancestors understood that it wasn't Calvinism or Puritanism that invaded and conquered our country in the 1860s but Unitarians, Transcendentalists, Pietists, and Catholic immigrants from Ireland and Germany. There's good and bad in Puritan New England just as there's good and bad in the South. It's not nearly as simple as everything Southern being good and everything Northern being bad. My support is 100% behind the 1607 Project. First heard about it from my former political and historical mentor Brion McClanahan!
Maybe it was the favor and guidance of the Almighty God that invaded the South and told them to stick with the Union.
NE prob influenced by Canada too
"These guys were good, but not perfect". Use the same charity toward Dr. King in his tenure. Seemed like imbalanced harshness toward his legacy compared to comments on Jefferson...
They are trumps minions..
@@user-cn1uu1tt5y I would not go that far, I doubt it.
This is not a bias on the part of Jon, just filling in the gaps that soft left schools won't teach you.
Also what he said is just historical facts. Are you saying history itself is biased?
