the author of freedom. It was not the Lord who freed the colonies or the
slaves it was armies. Nor do I think that individual rights are exclusively
revered by Protestants. As Pirsig points out the founders were also heavily
influenced by the example of the Iroquois Nations.

[Platt]
I doubt about "heavily influenced." Old Ben Franklin may have said something
about the Iroquois, but I how much it influenced the others is highly
debatable.

Yeah, all that stuff about Sidas and all. Probably, Pirsig was just kidding.
