The Treaty of Tripoli (Treaty of Peace and Friendship between the
United
States of America and the Bey and Subjects of Tripoli of Barbary)
was
the first treaty concluded between the United States of America and
Tripolitania, signed at Tripoli on November 4, 1796 and at
Algiers (for
a third-party witness) on January 3, 1797. It was submitted to the
Senate by President John Adams, receiving ratification
unanimously from
the U.S. Senate on June 7, 1797 and signed by Adams, taking
effect as
the law of the land on June 10, 1797.

"As the Government of the United States of America is not, in any
sense,
founded on the Christian religion,?as it has in itself no
character of
enmity against the laws, religion, or tranquility, of Mussulmen
[Muslims],?and as the said States never entered into any war or
act of
hostility against any Mahometan [Mohammedan] nation, it is
declared by
the parties that no pretext arising from religious opinions shall
ever
produce an interruption of the harmony existing between the two
countries."

Submitted to the Senate by President John Adams and ratified
unanimously.

To halt the piracy being committed by the Muslims in the area.
This was, supposedly, cheaper than
building a Navy.

The United States was not founded on the christian religion, period,
despite the attempts of christian ayatollahs to make it so. Many of
the
founding fathers were Deists, including Thomas Jefferson, Thomas
Paine,
and Benjamin Franklin. Deism is not christianity.

I don't know why you "defend" christianity. You're no follower of the
teachers of jesus.

Hell no he's not! Do you think that if he was he'd agree that when a
woman has a baby, even though she HAS to work to survive that she
should
be forced to immediately return to work or live on the streets with her
newborn child? What a piece of ****.


Do you think you know what God thinks? What a piece of ****...

You stupid little insane fool!!!


Wow, I love it when you get hysterical....



It's funnier when you flip out and start making threats, which you then
deny.


Or get the insane paranoia thing going about people trying to get him
via blackmail, etc.
