It is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey His will, to be grateful for his benefits, and humbly to implore His protection and favor.I have now disposed of all my property to my family. There is one thing more I wish I could give them, and that is the Christian Religion. If they had that and I had not given them one shilling they would have been rich; and if they had not that and I had given them all the world, they would be poor.
According to the Encyclopedia of Wars, a three-volume work by distinguished historians Charles Phillips and Alex Axelrod, of the more then 1700 recorded wars in the history of mankind, less than 7 percent of them were motivated by a religious cause.
It shows the folly of the militant secularists who love to hate and bash religions, distinguished and faithful preachers of God, and other servants of the Lord.
“You do not take a person, who for years, has been hobbled by chains and liberate him, bring him up to the starting line of a race and then say ‘you are free to compete with all the others' and still believe that you are being completely fair.” - President Lyndon B. Johnson
“At the heart of racism is the religious assertion that God made a creative mistake when He brought some people into being.” – Friedrich Otto Hertz
"The Republican Party is racist or simply doesn't care about blacks. And its ideology of conservatism is synonymous with racism and raw bigotry as it always has been. Since the end of Reconstruction, the Republican Party has been as racist as it is today. Its policies and attitude toward blacks prove it. It has no interest in recruiting black members because its constituency is white. It is the hub, the nerve center, of the white oppressive machinery that keeps blacks in bondage as second-class citizens. It is the mused and sometimes articulated credo of today's Republican Party that the party remain that way. White Republicans don't want to be bothered. They don't want, they don't need, or allow, blacks into their ranks, neighborhoods, occupations, schools, or social circles, simply because they are black." - Godfrey Mwakikagile
"The highest glory of the American Revolution was this: it connected, in one indissoluble bond, the principles of civil government with the principles of Christianity.” – John Quincy Adams
“There is one thing more I wish I could give [my family], and that is the Christian Religion. If they had that and I had not given them one shilling they would have been rich; and if they had not that and I had given them all the world, they would be poor.” – Patrick Henry
“It is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey His will, to be grateful for His benefits, and humbly to implore His protection and favor.” – George Washington
“We have this day restored the Sovereign to whom all men ought to be obedient. He reigns in Heaven, and with a propitious eye beholds his subjects assuming that freedom of thought, and dignity of self-direction which he bestowed on them. From the rising to the setting of the sun, may His Kingdom come.” – Samuel Adams
“Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” – John Adams
“Providence has given to our people the choice of their rulers, and it is the duty, as well as the privilege and interest, of our Christian nation to select and prefer Christians for their rulers.” – John Jay
“The Bible is the best of all books, for it is the word of God and teaches us the way to be happy in this world and in the next. Continue therefore to read it and to regulate your life by its precepts.” – John Jay
I'm an evangelical Christian, and a college student who likes to edit Wikipedia in his spare time. I must admit, I am a bit deflated about all the rampant secularism that is sweeping not only the United States, but Canada and Europe as well, although it started a lot sooner with Europe. After all, God did create us, and the Bible says in Psalm 33:12 that blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord. A lot of people worship the false god of secularism and selfishness. I'm also black, and concerned about the rise of the radical right and their merry band of hardcore racists, anti-immigrant fanatics, misogynists, and their reverse Robin Hood philosophy of taking vital economic help and services from the poor so they can spoil the rich with more money.
But, my faith in God sees me through all bad times.
