Lake County resident, David Lima, was compelled to again address the Lake County Commissioners since he could not offer a rebuttal to Commissioner Plecnik’s position on the separation of church and state.
Here is our video of Mr. Lima at the July 25th meeting:

Here is our video from the July 30th Commissioners’ meeting. Mr. Lima provides his insight to the founders being “Deists”.
“Deism is the belief in a higher power or supreme being based on reason and logic, rather than revelation or scripture. Deists believe that God created the world and set it in motion according to natural laws, and then left it to run on its own. They reject the supernatural aspects of religion, such as belief in revelation in the Bible, and instead emphasize the importance of ethical conduct. Deists also tend to be oriented toward scientific fact and natural observation.”
Fortunately, Mr. Dale Fellows, who is very knowledgeable about the history of our country’s beginnings, offered a counter argument to Mr. Lima. His response can be heard after Mr. Lima speaks.
We have followed Mr. Fellows’ great community work to educate children and adults about the history of our country. His reenactment as George Washington is well known throughout Northeast Ohio. Here he is at Hal Werner’s Judeo Christian rally in 2023.
Mr. Lima is a very affable, gracious man that has a quick smile. However, he and this writer are polar opposites on the political and religious spectrum. He views the term Christian Nationalist as a pejorative, I embrace it. He will not stand for the Pledge of Allegiance and prayer, I stand resolutely. He told me that he had a tremendous burden lifted off his shoulders when Joe Biden decided not to run in November. I asked if he realized that Biden’s dementia was detrimental to our country’s safety, and that he should step down immediately. Lima’s response was that he was only concerned about the Democrats getting elected in November, and that Biden’s handlers are running the country!
If Biden’s handlers want to run the country, they should run for President. We have a U.S. Constitution that we are supposed to follow. It is not merely a suggestion on how to run a country.
