    4/ Actually, that's exactly what America declares we do have: People are the image-bearers of God, created with dignity& inalienable rights.https://twitter.com/BenSasse/status/913513218777272322 …

        There is absolutely nothing in the constitutional history of the United States that depends upon our being "image-bearers of God."

        You have to understand that when he says "America" he means white evangelical Christians only.

        A great strategy to short circuit all goodwill & sincere dialogue is to screech "racissss!!!" which Mike Hattem demonstrates here.

        It really takes no intellectual effort at all, & the dividends are instant. A pure cocaine for the ideologically infantile left.

        White people calling other white people racist, for non-racist actions is the purest form of virtue signaling.

        Ever read the First Amendment of the Constitution? And many times is God or Jesus or any religion mentioned in the Constitution?

        I think he's referring to the Declaration of Independence, "... endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights..."

        He seemed to be referencing law. The Declaration of Independence doesn't define how the government functions

        The formulation is "...America declares..." The Gettysburg Address and "The New Colossus" aren't law, but nevertheless help define us.

        Ben you're a good man (I think). But long as you support this "goober" and Putin's spirit animal-in-chief it's hard to take you seriously.
