Some conservative Christians are touting the idea of taking over their own state.
ChristianExodus.org has been established to coordinate the move of 50,000 or more Christians to a single conservative state in the U.S. for the express purpose of reestablishing constitutional governance. It is evident that our Constitution has been abandoned under our current federal system. The efforts of Christian activism have proven futile over the past five decades and, whereas desperate times require desperate measures, we are now in the most desperate of times. The federal government is considering whether marriage, the foundation of civilization since Creation, should be reserved solely to a man and a woman. Christians must now draw a line in the sand and unite in a sovereign state to dissolve our bond with the current union comprised as the United States of America.
The success of ChristianExodus.org will lead to an independent Christian nation where people may once again worship God under the protection of a friendly government. In addition, such a nation will be free of burdensome taxation and federal meddling in local affairs. Matter of factly, the liberties we have lost to liberalism over the past century will be restored in one fell swoop.
I suspect there are quite a number of folks — Left and Right — who would be interested in seeing such a thing happen. It seems, though … well, kind of unlikely.
They only want to return to constitutional governance. Their plan to rescind ratification of the constitution! [Bill Cosby as Noah] Yeah, riiiight.
My thoughts exactly.
Sometimes, the US news reminds me of Heinlein’s Future History. Brrr!
I read this about two months ago and had a good laugh at it.
Also, if the Fred Phelps clan isn’t going, 50k is really only a good start.
Free Topeka, Kansas!
So lets see…we give Idaho to the skin-heads and disgruntled ex-cops, and Mississippi to a bunch of Taliban-Christians…no great loss either way.
