If you were defending the Cherokee and other native nations before the U. S. Supreme Court in the 1830s, what arguments would you make? If you were supporting Native American removal, what arguments would you make?

They were possibly an independent nation and so laws that required them to leave should be stopped in Georgia. They were also savages that prevented white people from using their heavily wanted land and when gold was discovered on their land white people wanted it even more.

according to romans 13: 1-7, 1st peter 2: 12-14, and 1 timothy 2: 1-4, christians as citizens have specific responsibilities to a nation that gives liberties to its people. christians are obliged to live as good citizens by submitting to the human government. honor, or respect, is due to men in the high governmental station. a christian should reflect such respect not to gain some favor but because it is god’s will. peter 2: 14 notes that the purpose of the human government is to promote peace and justice in society. to submit to human government, peter includes three elements; obedience, respect, and good deeds.
