Originally posted by @eladarI don’t think most modern people appreciate the severity and damage that was historically associated with the religious practice called shunning. In pre-modern Times a village or tribe was usually dominated by a particular denomination, and a call for shunning was basically a call for banishment, exclusion, starvation, even leading to death.
Not judging others ties in with what Paul wrote in Romans concerning judging others. You are not another's master, so do not quarrel over debatable matters.
Simply shun those who will not follow Biblical instructions which are not debatable. Paul discusses this in 1 Corinthians 5.
So shun children of Satan who claim to know God.

No need for me to shut up thank you.
Besides, on another thread somebody said
"The man can say what he wants to say. Remember the first amendment?"
Who was that ... ?
Who was it?

You have it easy. You only need one word to describe you.

Do you consider Ben Franklin as one of the Founding Fathers?

I suppose you have another take on who the Founding Fathers are?
Originally posted by @josephwYou seemed early to be suggesting that the founding fathers drafted the first amendment.
Benjamin Franklin was the oldest(70)of the signers of the Declaration of Independence.
Ben Franklin wasn't even alive then.
As you said earlier:
