For roughly 200 years, America accepted and even expected the promotion of Christianity and religious precepts in our schools and institutions. In-fact, our Founders and early Institutions themselves considered it imperative for the survival of the Republic for them to do just that:
"Let every student be plainly instructed, and earnestly pressed to consider well, the main end of his life and studies is, to know God and Jesus Christ which is eternal life, John 17:3, and therefore to lay Christ in the bottom, as the only foundation of all sound knowledge and learning. And seeing the Lord only giveth wisdom, let every one seriously set himself by prayer in secret to seek it of Him." - Rules and Precepts of Harvard.
The first amendment says that government has to respect all religions equally.
Really? Where are those words written? Article I, Bill of Rights reads: Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercize thereof..." Sorry, I still don't find the words "government has to respect all religions equally."
In-fact, one of our first Legal Scholars who advised our Founders warned us against doing that very thing:
"An attempt to level all religions, and to make it a matter of state policy to hold all in utter indiference, would create universal disapprobation, and universal indignation." - Joseph Story, Supreme Court Justice 1811
Why can't people acknowledge that when they defend people like Walz and Judge Moore, they're also defending Muslims and lesbian parents who want to convert *their* kids?
America was founded on the Laws of God in scripture, codified in the 10 Commandments, the cornerstone which was Jesus Christ. The Founders understood this Republic would only last as long as the people were beholden to that foundation.
Because we have devolved into debauchery and redefined morality, bending and reworking our foundations to accomodate our newfound tolerances and acceptances of hostile doctrines and precepts is still going to turn this Republic into a tyrannical secular democracy and ultimately be destroyed. We already see the fruits of this in our culture - it is all downhill from here.
"No human society has ever been able to maintain both order and freedom, both cohesiveness and liberty apart from the moral precepts of the Christian religion applied and accepted by all the classes. Should our Republic ever forget this fundamental precept of governance, men are certain to shed their responsibilities for licentiousness and this great experiment will then be surely doomed" - John Jay
Moral relativism, indifference and acceptance of traditions and new beliefs hostile to the very pillars of our existance, will result in our complete collapse into pure tyranny and eventual annihilation. Our Founders warned us of this, God in scripture warns us of this - and We the People have not heeded, and are being governed by our own ideas and suppostions of morality.
We will go the way all the Republics before us have gone, and in short order.
