Point #7 of the declaration sums it all up "Without secession, liberty and self-government can never be sustained, and diversity among human societies can never survive." Think on that for a moment. Put aside your false notions of "American nationhood" and if you just cannot do that read the article I previously wrote below. Big is not beautiful in all matters and when it comes to a political union big certainly can become oppressive to the minority view. We talk so often of our love for diversity but in politically correct terms that means only approved diversity - true liberty does not grow in such infertile soil.

Open Your Mind To Real Diversity
Joshua shared a link to a video related to the Chattanooga Declaration. I find it to be a particularly touching presentation of the wording itself.
