Well, July 4th is this weekend and I wonder if we really believe the Declation of Independence.
"When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation."
Could this even be done in today's world?
A great quote from GK Chesterton about Patriotism and Country: Can (the patriot) hate it enough to change it and yet love it enough to think it worth changing?
