RWW Blog - Tyler Russell filing in on the "Right Dissident"
From the standpoint of real-world practicability, there's no pretense about any of this. Even if we can assume these assholes are just demagoguing the whole thing, and their intent is simply to grift the rubes, there's a widening and deepening audience who take this shit as gospel, and whatever it's grown into at this point, it's taken on a life of its own.
Article 11 of the 1797 Treaty of Tripoli, declares, “The government of the United States of America is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion.”
Once ratified by the US Senate (as the Treaty of Tripoli has been done), the terms of that treaty become law in the US.
Lots of argument about the subject, and I have to come down on this:
While the US was founded by people who generally believed in some kind of deity, they stated often that they had every intention of avoiding the mistakes of history, and so were determined not to take any religion's doctrine and turn it into law.
