“The only foundation of a free constitution is pure virtue.”
Excellent! This is the truth.
Personally, I avoid the word “values” like the plague. I much prefer virtue. Virtue is related to Truth. And wise people know the Source of all truth.

The same conservatives and Christians who would stand up and give a hearty cheer for this essay, will (today) send their kids off to godless government schools. In these government schools the children **will** learn to think godlessly. They must simply to cooperate with the classroom indoctrination.
The foundation of our nation is the constitution and it has been ignored, put down, defied, mocked and twisted beyond any logical constraint by both major political parties, and all faiths, creeds and colors. We don’t need a new foundation, we just need to use our current foundation.
On the very foundation it was first founded upon, Jesus Christ.
Every American should read “The Light and the Glory”, by Peter Marshall and David Emanuel. You can order it through Borders and they will send it directly to your home. It is the unvarnished history of our country from l492, which no one will get anywhere else. Beautifully written, and truthfully and extensively researched, a true blessing to us all. Now it is our job during these corrupt times to see that everyone in all of our families read this important book, for their sakes, and for the sake of our beloved country.
