It is impossible to believe the various courts' interpretation of the 1st Amendment because so much of our Founders' lives says that the co-mingling of church and state was just fine so long as no church was established over the others.

Quotations prove it, art proves it, our buildings prove it, our documents prove it.

It is not failure to see that blinds our opponents. It is a willingness to lie because the light within them is all darkness.

Thank-you, for the post. Indeed it is a most impressive building, ...too bad most of our elected officals will never know GOD.

Perhaps when pagans, like those of the ACLU & People for the American Way, rip the heart out of our nation-
All these wonderfull and powerfull symbols of our heritage and foundation
will find a home safely ensconced with Judge Moore
And the great state of Alabama

Time to paint over those images of Pilgrims in prayer and Washington praying at Valley Forge and paint new images of gay couples exchanging marriage vows and senior citizens holding Social Security checks in one hand and prescription drugs in the other.

It breaks my heart to think a nation who ONCE loved God is being FORCED out of our land by a small majority..sigh :( WE NEED TO GET GOD BACK INTO OUR HOMES, SCHOOLS, COURT HOUSES, and sad to say in our CHURCH as well!

Fresco

Rotunda
Brumidi depicted George Washington rising to the heavens in glory, flanked by female figures representing Liberty and Victory/Fame. A rainbow arches at his feet, and thirteen maidens symbolizing the original states flank the three central figures. (The word "apotheosis" in the title means literally the raising of a person to the rank of a god, or the glorification of a person as an ideal; George Washington was honored as a national icon in the nineteenth century.

I'm sick and tired of anti-God complainers saying that the Constitution clearly says we must have separation of church and state. It does not say that. They have one interpretation. The rest of us have another that is the status quo. Their flimsy interpretation must not be allowed to disolve the foundations of our nation.

‘make no law respecting an establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof,’

Freedom of religion is not the same as freedom from religion. Their interpretation is largely drawn from a misunderstood writing by Thomas Jefferson in 1801, not from examination of the Constitution itself.

Chief Justice Moore's Poem at Rally
Monday, August 18, 2003

By Sam Kastensmidt

With thousands in attendance, Alabama Supreme Court Chief Justice Roy Moore delivered the following poem:

Our American Birthright

One nation under God was their cry and declaration,
Upon the law of Nature's God they built a mighty Nation.
For unlike mankind before them who had walked this earthen sod,
These men would never question the Sovereignty of God.
That all men were "created" was a truth "self-evident,"
To secure the rights God gave us was the role of government.
And if any form of government became destructive of this end,
It was their right, their duty, a new one to begin.

So with a firm reliance on Divine Providence for protection,
They pledged their sacred honor and sought His wise direction.
They lifted an appeal to God for all the world to see,
And declared their independence forever to be free.
I'm glad they're not here with us to see the mess we're in,
How we've given up our righteousness for a life of indulgent sin.
For when abortion isn't murder and sodomy is deemed a right,
Then evil is now called good and darkness is now called light.

While truth and law were founded on the God of all Creation,
Man now, through law, denies the truth and calls it "separation."
No longer does man see a need for God when he's in full control,
For the only truth self-evident is in the latest poll.
But with man as his own master we fail to count the cost,
Our precious freedoms vanish and our liberty is lost.
Children are told they can't pray and they teach them evolution,
When will they learn the fear of God is the only true solution?
Our schools have become the battleground while all across the land,
Christians shrug their shoulders—afraid to take a stand.

And from the grave their voices cry the victory has been won.
Just glorify the Father as did His only Son.
When your work on earth is done, and you've traveled where we've trod,
You'll leave the land we left to you, ONE NATION UNDER GOD!

[Russell Scott]

Mark 13
1 And as he went out of the temple, one of his disciples saith unto him, Master, see what manner of stones and what buildings are here!
2 And Jesus answering said unto him, Seest thou these great buildings? there shall not be left one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.
3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives over against the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked him privately,
4 Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign when all these things shall be fulfilled?
5 And Jesus answering them began to say, Take heed lest any man deceive you:
6 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
7 And when ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars, be ye not troubled: for such things must needs be; but the end shall not be yet.
8 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and there shall be famines and troubles: these are the beginnings of sorrows.
9 But take heed to yourselves: for they shall deliver you up to councils; and in the synagogues ye shall be beaten: and ye shall be brought before rulers and kings for my sake, for a testimony against them.
10 And the gospel must first be published among all nations.
11 But when they shall lead you, and deliver you up, take no thought beforehand what ye shall speak, neither do ye premeditate: but whatsoever shall be given you in that hour, that speak ye: for it is not ye that speak, but the Holy Ghost.
12 Now the brother shall betray the brother to death, and the father the son; and children shall rise up against their parents, and shall cause them to be put to death.
13 And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
