Response to The Founding Fathers ?

from Joel Rosen (Joel681@webtv.net)
Sorry for the delay in an answer --sheepish. The days lack the number of hours needed to compete with mother nature this time of year(farmng). I believe the central government came about as a result of fear. After just winning a revolution by the thinnest of margins and still fearing for their lives it was their best alternative for survival. Patrick Henry and most of Virginia was infuriated by a central government. He said something like " what manner of treason is brewed there". He meant for Virginia to stand alone. As far as this getting active in a political system ( as some have mentioned) --I feel a lot of homesteaders left that behind--so--I wrote a question on our internet connection. Did your blood boil ? Did some patriot hiding deep in your heart come charging out ? Did you spend a moment and reflect on your history and how it applies to you today ? DID YOU HUG YOUR WIFE AND CHILDREN AND THANK GOD YOUR ALIVE. GOOD !! NOW GO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT---even if others conceive you to be wrong.
