I have an objection to the lauding of men like Cromwell, who --- you want me to believe --- "brought the idea of the Republic to life" by ruling via unlimited tyranny and bringing so many of his subjects and neighbors to death.
"But why did you follow us here, Darlings? Couldn’t you have just moved to France or Rome?"
It would be clearer if you would specify who is this "you" you are addressing, and what you mean by "Follow us here".
"You" obviously does not mean ME, since my forebears are all Rhineland Palatinate; "here" apparently doesn't indicate Upper East Tennessee.
As am I, Dear. And East Tennessee was founded by my ancestors, as of course you know about the Wautauga Association and Colonel Sevier. You do understand the significance of my FR handle, Right?
But you're homepage notes your conversion back to the One Church, the Mother Church....the church of Caesar.
Ah, the Apostate. We all have them.
