As the safety and prosperity of nations ultimately and essentially depend on
the protection and the blessing of Almighty God, and the national
acknowledgment of this truth is an indispensible duty which the people owe to Him.

I have therefore thought fit to recommend a day of solemn humiliation,
fasting, and prayer that the citizens of these States offer their devout addresses to the Father of Mercies."

- John Adams, Proclamation for a National Thanksgiving on March 23, 1798

Free Republic stands for God and Country!!
Stand with Free Republic.

"It has been observed that a pure democracy if it were practicable would be the most perfect government. Experience has proved that no position is more false than this.
The ancient democracies in which the people themselves deliberated never possessed one good feature of government. Their very character was tyranny; their figure deformity."

~Alexander Hamilton

Speech in New York, urging ratification of the U.S. Constitution (1788-06-21)
