Did You Know? . . . Some American Facts:
As you walk up the steps to the Capitol
Building which houses the Supreme Court, you can see
near the top of the building a row of the world's law
givers and each one is facing the one in the middle who
faces forward with a full frontal view.
It is Moses and the Ten Commandments!
As you enter the Supreme Court courtroom, the two huge
oak doors have the Ten Commandments engraved on each
lower portion of each door.
As you sit inside the courtroom, you can see on the
wall, right above where the Supreme Court judges sit, a
display of the Ten Commandments!
There are Bible verses etched in stone all over the
federal buildings and monuments in Washington, DC.
James Madison, the fourth president, known as "The
Father of Our Constitution," made the following
statement:
"We have staked the whole of all our political
institutions upon the capacity of mankind for
self-government, upon the capacity of each and all of us
to govern ourselves, to control ourselves, to sustain
ourselves according to the Ten Commandments of God."
Patrick Henry, that patriot and Founding Father of our
country said, "It cannot be emphasized too strongly or
too often that this great nation was founded not by
religionists but by Christians, not on religions but on
the Gospel of Jesus Christ."
Every session of Congress begins with a prayer by a paid
preacher, whose salary has been paid by the taxpayers
since 1777.
Fifty-two of the 55 founders of the Constitution were
members of the established orthodox churches in the
colonies.
Thomas Jefferson worried that the Courts would overstep
their authority and instead of interpreting the law
would begin making law...an oligarchy...the rule of few
over many.
The very first Supreme Court Justice, John Jay, said,
"Americans should select and prefer Christians as their
rulers."
How, then, have we gotten to the point that everything
we have done for 220 years in this country is now
suddenly wrong and unconstitutional?

and let the world see what this country was built on. |
