The 1776 Commission

The long-awaited 1776 Commission that was ordered by the Trump administration became available today. I haven't had time to read all of it but initial impressions are good.

From just a quick skim, I have learned that the founding principles of the United States were based on opposition to "fascism", "slavery" and "progressivism". I always felt that was true and now I have the solid evidence published in a US govt report to smack down libs.

And wouldn't you know it... on day 1 of his illegitimate presidency:

Quote:

And Mr. Biden canceled Mr. Trump’s 1776 Commission, which released a report on Monday that historians said distorted the history of slavery in the United States.

Re: The 1776 Commission

Isn't it just like Democrats to take something objective and neutral and make it into something political. Government publications like those of the 1776 Commission need to be supported by more funds and wider distribution.

Re: The 1776 Commission

Slavery is a perfect example of unfettered free market capitalism. How could anyone be against that? Especially when the Bible tells us that slavery is good.

• Abraham, the “father of faith,” and all the patriarchs held slaves without God’s disapproval (Gen. 21:9–10).
• Canaan, Ham’s son, was made a slave to his brothers (Gen. 9:24–27).
• The Ten Commandments mention slavery twice, showing God’s implicit acceptance of it (Ex. 20:10, 17).
• Slavery was widespread throughout the Roman world, and yet Jesus never spoke against it.
• The apostle Paul specifically commanded slaves to obey their masters (Eph. 6:5–8).
• Paul returned a runaway slave, Philemon, to his master (Philem. 12).

1st Corinthians 6:2 Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world shall be judged by you, are ye unworthy to judge the smallest matters?
1st Corinthians 6:3 Know ye not that we shall judge angels? how much more things that pertain to this life?.

Liberals don't like to use the Bible for reference because they want to get away without being judged. Do they have no moral values of any kind? Do they think we cannot see through their little game?

Thank you, my Brothers in Christ, and particularly our esteemed Brother Bathfire, for directing this foolish young man's reasoning back to the Bible.

If one were to proceed to any searchable Biblical database and type in "God hates" one would find an impressive list that does not include slavery. Not one breath of disapproval for this time-honored institution is noted throughout the many instructions that The Lord wrote down for His people can be found in the Old Testament.

And Jesus, who was sent down to us to be God's direct spokesperson, didn't lift a finger to free anybody from slavery. He endured horrific suffering and temporary death to free us from Sin, but not from slavery. This alone should clarify that slavery is not considered sinful.

It is always amusing to read some poster inform us not to judge others and them condemn us to Hell, but this poster's run-on, non-punctuated stream of denouncements requires special judgment for his writing offences alone.
