Who are we going to believe?

I can quote God, and original: presidents, founders, constitutions, the Supreme Court, and even the NEA, who have all published unanimous perspective that [Christian] religion and morality are essential foundations for a free and prosperous United States. So why do we today really get agitated when such things enter the discussion, and why are we so willing to invoke the founders as the protectors of what they so dogmatically stood against? If we don’t know the importance of what they said was essential, then how are we to implement what they worked so hard to preserve? And if we don’t implement what they deemed necessary, how can we expect to survive as a nation?

For some 400 years we fought to maintain what had been established and protected, and then in 1963- 64 the Supreme Court made two unprecedented decisions that jackhammered these foundations: they took God and his bible from our schools and institutions, and in less than one generation look what we have become! For the first time in U.S. history, your generation grew up godless in a godless culture. Of course, it’s strange and unfamiliar to you, so you resist it. But it’s time to begin refamiliarizing ourselves with the Old and New Testaments of the god that our founders invoked as the reason for our success.

So when the Fair board says, “Drag is not lewd,” but God, and therefore our founders, say that it is, who are we going to believe?
