"ChristianExodus.org is moving thousands of Christians to South Carolina to reestablish constitutionally limited government founded upon Christian principles. It is evident that the U.S. Constitution has been abandoned under our current federal system, and the efforts of Christian activism to restore our Godly republic have proven futile over the past three decades. The time has come for Christian Constitutionalists to protect our liberties in a State like South Carolina by interposing the State's sovereign authority retained under the 10th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution.

The foundations of the United States of America were laid upon these principles, that the rights of man are God-given and inviolate, that the sole purpose of government is to secure these rights, and that the only just powers of government are those specifically delegated by the people. The federal government is restrained by Constitutional Law, the Sovereign States, and the Citizens of those States, each one made in the image of God, with individual rights to life, liberty, and property."

I'm joining straight away with that attitude! Where can I sign up for this amazingly biased right-winged cultist group?

I find it funny how colonising a new land has the most votes.... People like that fucked up their countries so they want to make a new one....

It'll all end in tears

I'm really what country they can colonise as the UN would step in and such, not like the UN can do anything militarily. And I'm sure most Christian nations would support it.

Dont think most 'Christian nations ' would support it as they all have secular governments,doubt a huge number of individual Christians would support it either.

Seeming the number of amazingly blind Christians is overwhelming, I have to stay on my previous comment.

This isn't an original idea or anything, though, is it?

I'd never heard of the strategy of moving large numbers of fellow activists to a single, small, US state, presumably in the hopes of taking over the local state government, until "Jesse, Bad Boy" told us all, in this forum, about his and his fellow anarcho-capitalists' plans for taking over, er, New Hampshire, I think it was. I wonder how that went.

I wonder where Jessy, Bad Boy is actually. He's not in the RS forum. I think he's on a holiday; again.

We could move all the anarcho-capitalists to South Carolina as well, that would be fun.

Its not at all an original idea,it has actually been achieved by extremist political groups in Britain but only at a very minor level. It relies on the apathy of most of the electorate who cant be bothered to go to political meetings or even use their vote,local elections over here get an average turn out of about 30% !
I doubt it would be terribly effective in the USA because the major issues are settled at Federal level,they might end up controlling a few counties like the Amish I suppose.

By extremist political groups in the UK, do you just mean the targeting of election campaigns on particular seats (which the mainstream parties do as well)?

I ask because I think this (and the anarcho-capitalists' campaign) actually involves relocating thousands of people to a particular state (and probably particular counties within that state.) That's what strikes me as weird about it - that needs a hell of a lot more political dedication than just going out canvassing every other weekend, that's for sure.

But, yes, I can't see you'd get a particularly effective end result, even if you did overwhelm a particular state with your nutty hordes. Maybe make a UDI or something?

Im talking about activists moving to a particular council ward (these can be won with as little as 150 votes) I agree it is by no means on anywhere near the same scale but it is a similar ploy, usually however the desired result is publicity rather than any realistic attempt at power.

Well. New Hampshire hasn't seceeded from the union yet, and we don't have really good track record for that sort of thing. :wink:

Yep, the last (and so far only) time that happened it was a four-year legal (among other kinds of) battle to get it all sorted out.
