USUS Politics General 2: Hope Edition - Discussion of President Trump and other politicians
Whenever "freedom of religion" is brought up in the context of the Founding Fathers always remember that the United States at the time was extremely Protestant, that at the time there were a number of individual state churches (but no national one) and that the incorporation of the Free Exercise Clause/Establishment Clause (Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof...) from the 1st Amendment into state law has only been around since the rulings of the Cantwell v. Connecticut and Everson v. Board of Education in the 1940s. Muslims and Hindus were basically non-existent in the national population during the Revolutionary era meanwhile only 1% of the population was Catholic and 0.03% to 0.08% were Jewish.
It's at this point I'd post the "Why not both?" meme. Then I realized I'm in super-serious USPG2.
Although, when I grew up the Mormons in my area, while a little odd, were perfectly fine. Some of the women were smoking hot too.
>Guy is visited by an "Angel" telling him he's the REAL last prophet
>The Prophet can have as many wives as he wants but his followers are far more limited
>Leads a crazy group of armed bandits into the desert and takes over a decent chunk of territory because the successor of Rome did nothing to stop them, despite impassioned pleas from the locals
>Bible fanfiction

The rank and file are usually ok, if a tad dumb. It is the highest ranks, the ones in charge of the Tabernacle, that are the evil ones.
There are ares within the tabernacle that are off-limits to all but a tiny handful of people, which is just one of the ways that Mormonism is more of a cult than a religion. Read the book The Godmakers, or watch the movie documentary made from it. The Mormon church does some extremely evil shit and is antithetical to christianity in even more ways than Roman Catholicism.
As a newly minted rural Nevadan, there are more casinos than supermarkets (substantially, at least 2:1) and ethnic diversity consists of whites, Mexicans and natives. Natives look the same as Mexicans but wear beads and have tribal IDs
It’s like almost an even three way split between those groups, so I can’t say for sure but I do kinda feel like a minority. I’m the only white male at work
I saw a black girl but I’m pretty sure she was some kind of transient prositute
I’d say I’m living the Chris Nolan version of fallout new Vegas, maybe in like Khan territory, but fuck the new California republic anyways
The freedom of religion envisioned by the Founding Fathers that did not establish a national church seems like it was meant to be a compromise between the dominant Protestant denominations in the 13 Colonies. It's fair to say it was never intended by them to become a legal defense for any faith hostile to Americans. The 14th Amendment and its consequences must be thanked for that.
>Leads a crazy group of armed bandits into the desert and takes over a decent chunk of territory because the successor of Rome did nothing to stop them, despite impassioned pleas from the locals
That’s the crazy thing. The casinos are by far the nicest shit. Everything is old and run down EXCEPT the casinos, which only adds to the FNV surreality
Like, New Vegas is a shithole until you can access the casino area
Edit: looked it up and supposedly rural Nevada is whiter than urban, like 70%. Maybe people are extremely tan? Maybe the Obama demographic fuckery just classified hella Mexicans as white?
