What is excellent about that "work" Chad?
the early Quaker and Methodist abolitionists and all those to follow,- I'm glad that people found it within their hearts and faiths to renounce slavery, again, our spotty track record in and out, in and out. I'm also glad that they had the balls to stand up to their fellow christian slaveholder.
the first builders of hospitals and asylums, - the first builders of these things? Not even by a mile. Country was initially filled with people of christian faith, buildings were thus erected by peoples of christian faiths I find this less impressive or indicative o christianity than you do. Had it been uslims, muslims would have built the buildings
the first to march for civil rights,-and the last, apparently, to oppose them even unto today.
all the men and women who demanded religious freedom under intense persecution, - intense persecution from other christians
all of which led to your freedom - a freedom absolutely defined by it's distance from your faith
a freedom you use to completely distort history- uh huh...
as if unbelievers ever did much more than invent some medical cures and a hydrogen bomb.- I see, "distorting history" is to be avoid, "omitting history" np.
And when they did do something big, like Communism, or the French Revolution it was a bloody disaster that made the Inquisitions look surprisingly civil. - Nothing makes the inquisition look surprisingly civil, nor would the inequity of others excuse ones own.

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
