America and Christianity #3

Everyone appointed to public office must say: "I do profess faith in God the Father and in the Lord Jesus Christ his only Son, and in the Holy Ghost...one God and blessed forevermore; and I do acknowledge the Holy Scriptures of the Old and New Testament to be given by divine inspiration." (Delaware Constitution, 1776 - consistent with the First Amendment).

It is important to note, regardless of current constitutional laws or their interpretation, that originally the authors of the Delware Constituion believed strongly that certain beliefs were integral to obtaining public office.
Our current American society and government is not as interested in the intentions of the founding fathers as we are led to believe. If so, there would be one religion, Christianity. There would be one God, the unified Father, Son and Holy Spirit. There would be one universal truth, the Bible.

America and Christianity #1

"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." (John Adams, 1st Vice President and 2nd President of the United States).

The founding fathers stated that without a moral code the constitution is useless. They believed the moral code was nothing other than the Bible itself. Our current problem with the direction of government is the removal of the Bible as the guiding force behind legislation and its interpretation. Without such guidance our government as we know it is without purpose.
