As being a Virginian by birth, I have learned many lessons while trodding on Virginia's sacred soil. No greater man, as well as Thomas Jonathon "Stonewall" Jackson, and Robert Edward Lee, signing their commissions to join the Rebel Cause after the American Civil War started, has been adequate enough for me to walk across the fields of honor with their appropriate armies. I have been assigned to a group of Virginians that are loyal to the Commonwealth of Virginia, and I have learned, that being a United Methodist since my baptism in 2007 has only strengthened my duties as a Virginian.
Though going into the military is not an option for me or any other aspie on this site, I can still support the Confederacy even though I oppose slavery. I don't think that involuntary servitude of African Americans is right. All men are created equal. Male and female-Husband and wife. White men and women have the same rights as do Asians, Arabs, Europeans, etc.
I have to say that once a person is born, they are born with rights as citizens of their native countries. I have saluted the flag of the Commonwealth of Virginia, and taken its oath of allegiance.
