“Endowed by their Creator”

This statement in the Declaration of Independence is occasionally held up as an indication the founding fathers of the United States intended the country to be Christian. It’s important to point out the Declaration of Independence is simply a group letter to a man who believed he was anointed by god to be king. It […]

Protests are genuine

Protests are generally from the heart. When people protest, the protestor has decided this is enough of an issue. They need to take time out of their lives and call attention to it.
