    Pretty sure while many were devout… many were also only Christian in the sense, that, it was less annoying to just go along with it than tell their mom.

        What, why? About 40% of my country are christ (half/half reform./catholic). Yet i only saw a few old people the last time i was in church.

        This isn’t common sense?

          Yeah in the year 2023. George Washington was alive hundreds of years ago… When people were more conservative and more religious

          Not a lot going on in the 1790s, might as well listen to some old blowhard scream how y’all going to hell for seeing an uncovered ankle.

      I don’t know about that. No one attended Thomas Paine’s funeral and he’s still the only one without a monument.
