Our Constitutional Republic will self-restore when Americans self-reform. That means rejecting irresponsible sexual behaviors (which lead to the breakdown of the family, the evil of abortion-on-demand etc) including so-called homosexual marriage, devil-may-care substance abuse etc. It means adopting, supporting, and living a God-based personal morality of right and wrong even if one does not consider oneself particularly religious.
As John Adams said, our Consititution was made for a moral and religious people; it is wholly unsuited to any another.
Agreed. However, the pulpit and each Christian fulfilling his personal calling is the key to this, not unleashing the government upon the citizenry.
There is a bill board in town that reads:
"The abortion clinics in this town operate with the permission of the churches of Jesus Christ."
People cannot become moral through external pressures, only by internal cleansing and education. You cannot stop gambling by banning it. It must come from the inside out, not by government edict.
You forgot shooting anyone who doesn't agree with your idea of morality.
Though I agree with the statements you made following the above assertion, I do not agree that our Republic will self-restore. Too much power has been consolidated among too few. Our country is run by an elite oligarchy, who impose their will, under the guise of a voters' mandate. We've already lost our freedom and no one....NO ONE...is going to give it back. If it is to be, it will have to be taken. And I don't think enough Americans have the stomach for it.
