| Topic | Were the American Founding Fathers cowards when it came to slavery? |
| Tyranthraxus 07/19/20 5:26:03 PM #45: | Many of the founding fathers were against slavery but could not convince the south to give them up. So they compromised with the North/South dichotomy. Nobody was happy but they weren't unhappy enough to refuse to ratify the constitution. The 3/5ths compromise was another thing that made no one happy. That was 2/5ths less than what the slave owners wanted and 3/5ths more than what the free states wanted but it made them not unhappy enough to ratify the constitution. --- It says right here in Matthew 16:4 "Jesus doth not need a giant Mecha." https://imgur.com/dQgC4kv ...
