“Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.”
The above quote was made by John Adams on October 11, 1798 while addressing the Massachusetts Militia.

The fact that The United States was founded as a Christian nation has been the subject of intense political and social debate throughout the past one hundred years as progressives (communists) have sought to change the structural fabric that holds our society together. Our founding fathers had the wisdom, experience and insight to see that the common people needed protection from governments whose sole philosophy on governing placed them, and them alone above all else. This was the reason our Constitution was written, to protect the rights of the people while keeping government in its proper place, as servants and protectors of those rights, not grantors.
