Episode Notes

In this episode of the National Crawford Roundtable the guys discuss the sins of slavery and polygamy from a distinctly Christian point of view.  Could someone simultaneously be a Christian and a slave owner or polygamist?  How do we contextualize American and slave ownership?  Many of our Founding Fathers were slave holders; how do we reconcile this? Can we really judge the actions from the 1700s through a 2021 lens?  Does the Bible "condone" slavery or polygamy?  The guys also talk about the trashing of America over the Independence Day holiday from "Squad" member Rep. Cori Bush, Maxine Waters, the Washington Post, NPR, NYT, USA Today, National Geographic (who called fireworks racist), even Marvel Comics which had Captain America call the American Dream, "a lie."
