"It is the duty of all men in society, publicly, and at stated seasons, to worship the SUPREME BEING, the great Creator and Preserver of the universe. And no subject shall be hurt, molested, or restrained, in his person, liberty, or estate, for worshipping GOD in the manner most agreeable to the dictates of his own conscience; or for his religious profession or sentiments; provided he doth not disturb the public peace, or obstruct others in their religious worship."

-- John Adams (Thoughts on Government, 1776)

(My Note:  Any casual student of American History, even a beginner, should have no problem at all in determining that the modern concept of Separation of Church and State is and always has been nothing but a lie! It is an invented lie that doesn't exist, and it never did exist, but it has been repeated so many times now by folks like the ACLU that many Americans actually believe the twisted and manufactured lie of Separation of Church and State! All it is and all it's ever been is an invention of activist judges WHO ARE AND HAVE BEEN VIOLATING OUR CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS!! All but the last 50 years of this nation's history proves it is a lie, AND THE JUDGES WHO ISSUED THE OPINION KNEW IT WAS A LIE!!!!!!

"We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion…Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people . It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other." (President John Adams. October 11, 1798. Address to the Military.)



President John Quincy Adams

"The highest glory of the American Revolution was this, it connected in one indissoluble bond, principles of civil government with the principles of Christianity." (July 4, 1821.)




"The original version (of the First Amendment) proposed in the Senate on September 3, 1789, stated, 'Congress shall not make any law establishing any religious denomination.' Their second version stated, 'Congress shall make no law establishing any particular denomination.' The third version was very similar, 'Congress shall make no law establishing any particular denomination in preference to others.' The final version passed on that day declared, 'Congress shall make no law establishing religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof.'…According to their records, the word 'religion' was interchangeable with 'denomination.'" (pp. 4-5. The Foundations of American Government. WallBuilder Press: Aledo, TX. 1993)

"It cannot be emphasized too strongly or too often that this great nation was founded, not by religionists, but by Christians; not on religions, but on the Gospel of Jesus Christ."

"To grant that there is a supreme intelligence who rules the
world and has established laws to regulate the actions of his
creatures; and still to assert that man, in a state of nature,
may be considered as perfectly free from all restraints of law
and government, appears to a common understanding altogether
irreconcilable.  Good and wise men, in all ages, have embraced
a very dissimilar theory.  They have supposed that the deity,
from the relations we stand in to himself and to each other, has
constituted an eternal and immutable law, which is indispensably
obligatory upon all mankind, prior to any human institution
whatever.  This is what is called the law of nature.... Upon this
law depend the natural rights of mankind."

-- Alexander Hamilton

nature, and not as the gift of their chief magistrate."

"The law of nature and the law of revelation are both Divine: they flow, though in different channels, from the same adorable source. It is indeed preposterous to separate them from each other."

(My Note:  Again, the laws of nature means the Laws of God or Rights given by God.)

"Terrorists are also winning the psychological warfare, partly because the jihadists are unified behind a goal and we often are not. They want territory and they want to kill 'infidels.' American leftists want 'peace,' without realizing that peace is a byproduct of defeating evil. The left also wants to use the war for partisan political gain and will seek to deprive President Bush of any credit for victory because it could benefit him politically. How sick is that?"  — Cal Thomas

John 17:11 NASB  "I am no longer in the world; and yet they themselves are in the world, and I come to You. Holy Father, keep them in Your name, the name which You have given Me, that they may be one even as We are.

"We pray for the military families who mourn the loss of loved ones. We hold them in our hearts—and we honor the memory of every fallen soldier, sailor, airman, Coast Guardsman, and Marine. One of those fallen heroes is a Marine Corporal named Jeff Starr, who was killed fighting the terrorists in Ramadi earlier this year. After he died, a letter was found on his laptop computer. Here's what he wrote, he said, 'If you're reading this, then I've died in Iraq. I don't regret going. Everybody dies, but few get to do it for something as important as freedom. It may seem confusing why we are in Iraq, it's not to me. I'm here helping these people, so they can live the way we live. Not to have to worry about tyrants or vicious dictators. Others have died for my freedom, now this is my mark'."    —President George W. Bush
