At what point is that relevant? If the issue is revolution v. progress and growth, it would only be logical to move beyond, for instance, slavery and women as second class citizens to, to a more "highest calling" understanding of our creeds. You are reaching, friendo, and it's sad.

Oh I don't know, how about The Declaration of Independence 1776, or maybe The US Constitution 1787, or The Bill of Rights 1791? And you come on here quoting some obscure bozo from Brazil who is a blazing atheist no less? There were 74 founders in attendance at the constitutional convention and you can't find a single one who even remotely backs you up, but PAULO FREIER the lunatic monk? Now there's a guy you can quote!! :hilarious:
