Re>If you won't obey an all powerful, just and merciful God that you can not control, why would you obey a government run by men? That's all I am saying

I try to do right by God and also my country. I do separate religion from politics and I think Jesus did also.

That's part of the problem. People who abandon their faith and betray their stated principles in the voting booth are destroying America.

So you are saying then that Jefferson was wrong? How about George Washington?

"Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity,religion and morality are indispensable supports. It is impossible torightly govern the world without God and the Bible."
- George Washington

How about Benjamin Franklin?
"The longer I live, the more convincing proofs I see of this truth:'that God governs in the affairs of men.' And if a sparrow cannot fall tothe ground without His notice, is it probable that an empire can risewithout His aid."
Benjamin Franklin

How about John Adams?

"Let them revere nothing but religion, morality and liberty."
John Admas

What do you know about this country that these men who helped create it didn't know?
