One other point. I can't control whether people turn away from God, but I can act with others to restrain the federal government to it's Constitutional bounds.

"One other point. I can't control whether people turn away from God, but I can act with others to restrain the federal government to it's Constitutional bounds."

I understand, but that's just rearranging the proverbial deck chairs on the Titanic. If we only focus on government policy we will eventually lose the war as the faithless continue to proliferate. John Adams said what he said for a very important reason. Without faith in, and obedience to God the Constitution and its principles of limited government will not prevail. I'm not claiming that you or I can make anyone turn to God or change their ways. Of course we can't do that. I'm just trying to point out reality.

If the Constitution alone could save us then applying it in some 3rd world backwater country should lead to happiness and prosperity. The fact that we both know that wouldn't happen proves that it is the moral character of the people themselves, not the document, that matters most.
