People try to ignore our Christian roots nowadays, but the first amendment was about keeping the state out of church business. 🙏

Thank you Tara. This post clarified several things that I have wondered about or learned for the first time. I have wondered why the raid on British tea was conducted by Americans dressed as American Indians and now, I know.

I also have learned that the Virginia Burgesses were dissolved and the former Burgesses resolved for a day of prayer and fasting and that as private citizens, they resolved that a punishment on one British Colony was a punishment on all.

George Washington and Thomas Jefferson were in the thick and thin from the very beginning of our quest for freedom and independence. Thank you Tara.
