Yes they can exist. The act of kneeling is disrespectful when it comes to the flag. He openly said he was protesting police violence against blacks. You're the one having trouble with logic and being naïve to the spin. Everyone knew what he was doing including himself. He tried to spin it when it backfired on him.You think that Kapernick meant to disrespect (based on literally nothing). You also think he changed to kneeling because of the way the public reacted to his sitting (again, based on nothing). You also think that a veteran is lying about Kapernick trying to be more respectful. These ideas cannot coexist.
You cannot even call a fact a fact. Testimony of a conversation is not an opinion. It might be a lie, but it is not an opinion.

The US may not have been founded as a "Christian Nation" as in a type of theocracy as some kind've claim, but to think that the thoughts and freedoms contained in the Constitution (that was written by a bunch of protestant Christians) didn't draw the majority of it's inspiration from Christian Moral truths is laughableStill not correct
YOU:How on earth does that make it a disrespectful act?
Please try to understand. Or don't. I don't care. This is my last post either way.

Muslims are deists? That's rich, that's like calling a cat a dog.... Deism is essentially the rejection of organized religion in favor of recognizing that there is a Creator of this world that neither interacts nor cares for it's creationSome of the founders were Christians, but a more accurate thing to say is that we were founded by deists. Muslims are deists.
Actually it's not if you read what the FF wrote about it. Their ideas came from throughout history with some pre-dating Christianity. They were actually pretty smart peopleThe US may not have been founded as a "Christian Nation" as in a type of theocracy as some kind've claim, but to think that the thoughts and freedoms contained in the Constitution (that was written by a bunch of protestant Christians) didn't draw the majority of it's inspiration from Christian Moral truths is laughable
Lol no need to insult my intelligence, based on what I've read founding fathers were deists but majority if not all were raised in one of the 3 main sects of Protestantism at the time, if I'm wrong let me knowActually it's not if you read what the FF wrote about it.

It shouldn't have happened.
They could have just as easily put the crescent moon on the mound in honor of Ramadan which is going on right now. Somehow, I don't think those in favor of the cross on the mound for Easter would be quite as enthusiastic for it.
