Beers with our Founding Fathers



        rest of the ride – it is not nice to just agnostically (without

        knowledge) leave a forum until you have gleaned knowledge from it.
        I also first mentioned that I am not a secularist – that which is

        regarded not as religious, spiritual, or sacred.  Each of us has a
        foundation in one form or another in religion or spirituality, as does

        our country.  These have a place in our personal lives – our home,
        hearts and minds.  To understand and appreciate how our Country

        was first settled and founded, we need to understand the important
        role of religion, then and now.  To ignore this is to ignore our future.

        Remember the USSR, and now the continuing direction of the
        European Union, or EU (and should be more accurately referred to

        as the European Union of Socialist Republics)?  The USSR was not
        only communist – the archenemy of capitalism, but was also an

        atheist state with no religion of any kind allowed.  The EUSR is on
        the same path – with an anti-Judeo Christian religion slowly taking

        over.  Other countries, such as China, are communist – but they have
        never lost the importance of their religious history, one reason they

        survive.  The other, to be addressed later, is that China has an
        oppressive communist government that also recognizes the political

        and economic value of capitalism.
