Bonus points. If you think of something you would add to the new constitution.

    There should be a 5th one: A ban on religious discrimination.

    Number six should be that, just like the Protestant Reformation, Catholicism should be banned. That’s what controls all of Christianity. On top of that, the laws shouldn’t be written in such a way that protect Catholics and Jesuits, and protect everyone, regardless of their personal beliefs.

      Religious discrimination is already prohibited by the Civil Rights Act and religious speech is protected by the first amendment. Furthermore, all recognized religious institutions are untaxed, there was even a segment where talk show host John Oliver founded his own recognized religion as an example.

      The nation was founded by Anglican Seperatist Pilgrims fleeing the Roman Catholic influences. Protestants are double the number of Catholics in the USA.

      If anything, I believe we need to start treating all religions like business institutions.

        Indeed, we should. Especially since every single religion all goes to cause people to revere and obey the Pope, the Mark of the Beast. I’ve believed this since 2025 when I started studying it.

      As bad as Catholics can be, they are a bit player in the US religious landscape. I reject the premise that they are still the standard by which American “Christianity” sets its course. I’m not defending them exactly, I’m just saying they aren’t the most serious problem. By far the most dangerous are the post-second-reformation evangelicals. American Catholics are barely even Catholic by most measures, and are far more heavily influenced by American Pentecostals, Adventists, Mormons, and most dangerous of all Southern Baptists. Even their own forebears would consider what they’ve become blasphemous heretics.

        Evangelicals are controlled by the Catholic church, whether they know it or otherwise. Most of the danger comes from Catholic-style parenting and indoctrination that happens in these churches at the hands of the Jesuit Order.
