We broke from England because of the tyranny of taxation without representation, a moral cause.

Had England decided to win, it wouldn't have been a "moral cause" it would be declared an "immoral clause" and people like you would be arguing that it was right and proper for England to smash this immoral attempt at Independence.

If the topic was ever subsequently brought up, someone like you would be foaming at the mouth regarding the absolute immorality of Colonists throwing off their perpetual allegiance to the King. As the King was selected to rule by God, defying the King is the Ultimate immorality.

Your problem is that you have no grasp of zeitgeist.

Uh, no I wouldn't. I believe there should be rebellion anywhere a people lose their representation if that people have the integrity to conduct themselves in a Godly way.

No, my 5-great grandfather fought for representation here out of Norfolk in the American Revolution. Representation is in my blood. If you look at my posting history you'll see I post mostly on Christian threads. When a nation strays from biblical principles, there should be rebellion or separation. Britain violated God's Word through their unfairness to the American Colonists and before that by their policies against free enterprise. Deuteronomy is very economically conservative.

No, most Americans know and have always known slavery is evil. It's what our Constitution is about, except the parts the southerners wrote. lol
