“Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious People. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.”1
-John Adams
Been thinking about this all day (again), especially while assembling with others for worship of the Self-sacrificing Deity for Whom we meet to remember as He requested only hours before His execution in our place.
Thanks for this reminder. We should not count on irreligious immoral other citizens to be of a mind to obey the laws and statutes and ordinances imposed by Constitutional law. You would think that at least "church-going" communicants would be thinking about this, and get active doing something at least a little evangelistic in their family and amongst the population thet come in contact with, not in teory, but in practicing abiding compliant to the laws of our community.
The general acceptance of selfish lawlessness is spreading like lightning. This ought not to be. Why are we thinking of tolerating the actions of others who have decided to abandon a law-abiding behavior only to do as they please never minding the inconveniences and insults their inconsiderate actions cause? It is the moral and/or religious person who is now reprimanded by the officials, not the agressions of the lawless which demands law-enforcement.
