No, actually, it comes from God. God is the lawgiver, the king and the judge.

God is only the judge of our spirituality. God does not run our government- our laws are created by men, enforced by men and exist for men. God is all well and good, but He does not run my government.

Our goverment was created on judeo-christian principles. I'll grant you that. But so what? We're free to change our government to reflect whatever we desire it to reflect.

God disagrees with you. For a Chrsitian, is Jesus Lord over ALL of life or just one's spiritual life? hmmm? I think your theology is hopelessly skewed as well as your history. Our founders recognized that God was sovereighn - again, READ THE DECL. OF INDEPENDENCE. - Who is the giver of rights? God NOT man. Who won the revolutionary war? According to the founders, GOD DID! Need quotes? I got em. So, you can believe what you want, but it doesn't jive with the FACTS of history.

No, you are not. The Constitution is the LAW OF THE LAND. We are a nation of laws not men. LEX REX. Look that up. I will not let you take away my rights - I will fight you.
