I'm kicking myself. But here goes.......

Everything I knew about comes from distant memory from something I saw on history channel years ago. A quick Google had this interesting link

Statehood for West Virginia: An Illegal Act?
www.wvculture.org/history/journal_wvh/wvh30-1.html
The admission of West Virginia in the midst of a war was an unusual event in the ... The restored Union-oriented government of Virginia lived briefly and with little ... Actual statehood did not occur until June 20, 1863 but the creation of West ...


So from what I read the state of WVA would have never happened if not for VAs preoccupation with union aggression and invasion. WVA succeeding from va was not only illegal from the commonwealths state law but was also illegal federally. They legality of the new state hood was questioned by most all even president Lincoln. Who himself was guilty of approval and directing of war crimes along with his secretary of war and Secretary of State.

Well, what do you know? Looks like things haven't changed much from that time and now, either state-wise or federally!!!

Ahh you only qouted Jer 10:23 b this is the full verse "Jer 10:23 O LORD, I know that the way of man is not in himself: it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps."

Just one more reason I'm proud to be a West Virginian...... we're just a tad more independent than the average American.

Proverbs 16:18-pride is before a crash.....

That prideful independence comes at a cost. 152 yrs later VA is the 9th wealthiest commonwealth in the union. WVA is the 49th.

I'll take it. I don't particularly care how rich one state is compared to another as my life is wonderful and joyous, regardless of material gain or worth.

For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Mark 8:36

You have a problem with misquoting. this is the verse!!!! "Pr 16:18 Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall."

I think is more a thing if using a different version than "King James Version"

Predictable answer. Not wrong. But pridefully predictable

Here's something else interesting. Since late 1700 the counties that made up WVA have wanted to leave va they didn't like the wealthier planter class of the east that held most of the political power dictating to them how to live

So they saw their chance to leave in early 1860 and succeeded. The irony of it all they ended up supporting and helped institute a strong federal govt instead of a once strong state level govt. which 150 yrs later now WVA is once again answering to a wealthy class of politicians. Also based in the east a few hrs north of their once capital of Richmond.

Everything comes full circle. No one can ever truly wins under mankind rule
