There’s no such thing as Judeo-Christian vision for the founding of America.
People need to take back their lives from fascists and their false narratives.
I am specifically bringing up Islam because of loony loomers Islamophobia.
The Founders of this nation explicitly included Islam in their vision of the future of the republic. Freedom of religion, as they conceived it, encompassed it. Adherents of the faith were, with some exceptions, regarded as men and women who would make law-abiding, productive citizens. Far from fearing Islam, the Founders would have incorporated it into the fabric of American life.
Ideally, America should be a secular nation with freedom to practice any faith in personal life.
It’s quite easy to look in hindsight and chastise those in the past for what is perceived as horrible today. But here’s a fun fact, you no proof nor shall you ever, that you would have been any better back then.
No, there were contemporaries who were calling out the hypocrisy of owning slaves while talking about freedom. It was perceived as horrible back then too.
Okay so maybe it’s unfair for me to make fun of them for not bathing because they thought it would “let the bad airs in” and make them sick, but for that exact reason maybe we shouldn’t admire them or look to them for guidance.
It doesn’t matter what the Founders thought. They’re all dead. This country is ours now, not theirs.
