God and Country

It dumbfounds me on a consistent basis how so many question our founding fathers basing our country on the Christian religion. Quote after quote is to be found where our founders gave praise to God for the blessing they enjoyed and accrued.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. Declaration of Independence

I have lived, Sir, a long time; and the longer I live, the more convincing proofs I see of this Truth, that God governs in the Affairs of Men. And if a Sparrow cannot fall to the Ground without his Notice, is it probable that an Empire can rise without his Aid? Benjamin Franklin

I now make it my earnest prayer, that God would have you, and the State over which you preside, in his holy protection, that he would incline the hearts of the Citizens to cultivate a spirit of subordination and obedience to Government, to entertain a brotherly affection and love for one another, for their fellow Citizens of the United States at large, and particularly for their brethren who have served in the Field, and finally, that he would most graciously be pleased to dispose us all, to do Justice, to love mercy, and to demean ourselves with that Charity, humility and pacific temper of mind, which were the Characteristicks of the Divine Author of our blessed Religion, and without an humble imitation of whose example in these things, we can never hope to be a happy Nation. George Washington

"It is the right as well as 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 and season most agreeable to the dictates of his own conscience;
or for his religion profession of sentiments; provided he doth not
disturb the public peace, or obstruct others in their religious
worship...."

Massachusetts Bill of Rights, Part the First, 1780


Today as we slide further and further into some sort of
depraved abyss, where Christian's are forbidden to pray in
school, Muslims aren't.
Where homosexuality has no social taboo, and the word bitch's
and 'ho's are allowed to describe women, one has but to
look around and see that maybe
our founders knew something that we have overlooked.
