Remember that when everyone is looking to support their families and there is no money to pay the police and keep civil order. If people are Godless and immoral that is their choice and not the role of government to enforce. YOU are your keeper NOT ME (or anyone else) and that is what the founders intended. They had no idea how much decay would occur and I'm sure they'd be horrified.

I'm not saying I don't want my fellow man to better constrain his animalistic urges but I certainly don't want government to enforce his behavior.

>>I certainly don’t want government to enforce his behavior.

“TO SECURE THESE RIGHTS, governments are instituted among men”

To secure them from whom? From those individuals whose animalistic urges are not self-controlled? From those whose unconstrained behavior would manifest a Fatal Liberality upon us all?

Those who do not learn from the past will repeat it.

I don’t know about you, but I prefer not to experience the insanity of Calligula’s or Nero’s Rome.

You don’t know history. The founders were fine with state laws against obscenity, sodomy and public drunkenness, to just pick a few.

The problem is the government IS in the business of enforcing Godlessness and immorality and they need to be taken back out of it.
They are enforcing the homosexual agenda on every front and it is getting worse, they are intruding in our right to worship and that is getting worse also.
I do not want the government enforcing the homosexual agenda and atheism or every religion except Christianity.

Constantly harping on leaving these issues out is exactly the problem that got us here in the first place. We have let them go to far already. People have been backing down to these issues for too long. The TEA party is not just about money. It is about being sick of turning into decadent Rome before the fall, or any other power that fell all throughout history, Biblical and non. Immorality from a lack of Fear of the Lord comes first, before the fatal fiscal corruption. Without the respect for the ultimate authority of God, there is no respect.

If you cannot see this happening then you still have scales on your eyes and nothing anyone says will reach you. your heart will have to be softened by one more powerful than I.

I am not calling for a theocracy, just an adherance to the intent of our founding documents would be nice.
Hopefully it isn't too far gone, I try not to be in comlete dispair now that my eyes are a little more open.
