The pattern of history is clear: Nations that lose their reverence for God are only one short step from a complete devaluation of the lives and the liberty of those who are made in His image.
Dr. Kennedy is correct.

The pattern of history is clear: Nations that lose their reverence for God are only one short step from a complete devaluation of the lives and the liberty of those who are made in His image.That may be true about nations based on religious beliefs, including those based on the "divine right" of a king. But this nation was not. It was based on philosophical beliefs. Primary among those beliefs was freedom of conscience.
If we lose our commitment to that belief....
