Yes, I understand that. It still brought people together. I didn't say anything about health epidemics at all in my posts and it is a tragedy, but back then the technology was not as such it is today to handle a lot of health issues. You can't stop a health epidemic that you don't have a cure...

Yes you are. I am not saying that is the reason why Wars or terrible things should happen so people can bond together. That is silly, that should come naturally but sadly it does not. I suppose in some parts of the country in maybe smaller towns or something like that is does more regularly but...

I think you are wrong, but this is my opinion only. I believe Wars as horrible as they may be bring people closer. Just look at 9/11. I was very little at the time of the attacks, but it brought this country together for a period of time.

What a wonderful story and a wonderful work that God has worked in you. I will definitely read the story of David more. Thank You

Well regardless this has gotten way off topic and I have to go to my old stomping grounds my Dance Studio where I took many dance classes through the years and visit several of my Dance instructors. So I am out.

No, because I am one not to fire back at them with anything. It has happened to me before and the way I handled it was to just walk away.

They do the same exact thing today. They have to work together to try and reach a common goal. They already have trouble enough reach much agreement on anything if they nit pick on everything absolutely nothing would be done. Take the Slavery issue for instance. If John Adams and Thomas...

That may be true, but it still has an immediate impact on me at the time.

And what may I ask did the other poster do when they just picked out the specific passage relating to praying in privacy? I choose to read passages and hopefully interpret them in the correct way. If I can't then I get help from my Pastor or Professor.

They like many in Congress back then had to work together as they do today or attempt to. There were definitely Christians back then such as the Rev, John Witherspoon. Of course they had to work together and sometimes compromise on things to get things dome such as the issue of Slavery during...

The backlash is getting told to your face that you shouldn't saying that. That the proper way of greeting people is Happy Holidays. Well with that sort of statement right there it's not making much of a Happy Holiday at all.

But there are also scriptures that say go out and speak the word of God so others can hear.

Not completely true, I do believe however that the bottom line is Jesus Christ died for our sins and only through Him we can receive salvation. People can live moral and ethical lives there entire lives, but in the end if they have not accepted Jesus Christ as their person Savior they will not...

Other people are keeping me from saying it as in some cases if I do reply Merry Christmas to some I could end up getting some sort of backlash from it. So yes just people in general and not all people, but there are many people. So if you say I am allowed to to express my faith the way I want...

I would say and of course I was not around to be there for any of this but the Founding Father's made decisions on Gods Word. I would also say during the 20's, 30's, and 40's would be a good time in history that most recently would reflect that. I am just going on things from history though and...
