Lets pretend that a group of elected people get together and write down some rules for the group that elected them. Then, that group applies those rules to the group for 170 years. Do you think it would be legitimate to have another group of people 170 years later say that everybody has been doing it wrong for the last 170 years?
Well, that is what has happened with the discussion of separation of church and state.
How can this be?
In the last 60 years, the courts have decided that everything our Founding Fathers wrote about God in America and in fact practiced wasn’t what they really intended. Again I ask you: how can this be?
The voice of the majority has been silenced due to apathy, fear and political correctness. The fear that they will be considered old fashion and too conservative. The liberal movement has taken control or reason, fact and history. History is being changed because a liberal believes they and only they should determine what is right and wrong, good or bad. Forget about the original intent of our Constitution and the men who wrote it. We even have a Supreme Court Justice now that has stated the Constitution is fluid and means something different today than it did when it was written.
Every facet of our lives has been changed. From removing religious symbols from public display to ridding our schools of any notion that there could be a God.
Our schools are afraid to even mention the word God. The school books have removed the mention of God and religion to the point that they really aren’t teaching American history anymore, they are teaching make believe.
In school we used to study the farewell speech of George Washington, but we don’t any longer because he mentions the importance of religion in our lives. He wrote: “Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, religion and morality are indispensable supports.” and “And let us with caution indulge the supposition that morality can be maintained without religion. Whatever may be conceded to the influence of refined education on minds of peculiar structure, reason and experience both forbid us to expect that national morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principle.”
The last sentence has proven to be correct. National morality has decreased to the point that we expect people to lie, cheat and steal. Our politicians make campaign promises they don’t intend to keep and we don’t expect them to. Abortion is a great way to limit births. A teenager needs a permission slip from their parents to go on a field trip, but not to get an abortion. Profanity is prevalent everywhere in society.
George Washington's had tremendous support for the importance of religion and morality in not only promoting private and public happiness, but also in promoting the political prosperity of the nation. If you read some of my earlier blogs, you will notice that people came to America for religious freedom. From Christopher Columbus to the Puritans, they were all deeply religious and developed a country they believe would have religious freedom. They also recognized the fact that God was an important part of American and that we had God’s help in designing the Constitution and in developing America. We have gone from separation of church and state to the separation of religion and state, making us basically an atheist nation.
GOD HELP US.
