we have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion.

Without the commonly agreed self-restraint of Christian morality as a consensus among the majority, our capitalist republic system collapses.

John Adams
Signer of the Declaration of Independence and Second President of the United States


"It is religion and morality alone which can establish the principles upon which freedom can securely stand.
The only foundation of a free constitution is pure virtue."

"We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion...
Our constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other."

"The moment the idea is admitted into society, that property is not as sacred as the laws of God,
and that there is not a force of law and public justice to protect it, anarchy and tyranny commence.
If “Thou shalt not covet,” and “Thou shalt not steal,” were not commandments of Heaven,
they must be made inviolable precepts in every society, before it can be civilized or made free."

Re: Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people.
which is why the government has been pushing immorality, atheism, vice and sin for over 100 years.
And importing millions of third worlders.
Change the population base, you change the nation and the Constitution is no longer applicable.
This is the number 1 reason they are doing these things. To corrupt the people so they can eliminate the Constitution.

Re: Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people.
it was made for ppl that would stand up and die to protect it. which makes up like 0% of current america because half support it and the other half accept it. like 0 isn't 0. where was anybody to stand up and fight and die when 600billion was givin to the bankers? the bottom line is that america is filled with consumer debt slaves instead of free blooded americans. the government can abuse the constitution as long as you can buy the newest piece of garbage made in china.

Re: Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people.
In order for it to work, the church has to be strong and do their part.

Passing out food is not the role of the government.
Paying the rent is not the role of the government.
Keeping the heat on is not the role of the government.
Paying for health insurance is not the role of the government.

These are charity things.

While morals don't necessarily come from the church, the universal standards of not stealing, lying, murdering or cheating are morals in which the church stands by. If the church was doing its job, we wouldn't have these things in our society.

It is not the governments job to teach the kids to eat healthy. It is not the governments job to make sure the kids have jackets and clothes to wear.

If equality existed, these things would be given to all. However, this government is a very corrupted government, which no longer believes that all men are created equal.

Inequality is the hallmark of the democratic party. They fought and killed their fellow countrymen to keep slavery years ago, and it will not ever be forgotten.

I have no problem with the government giving out food stamps. Just make sure you're giving them to everyone. I have no problem with the government giving tax breaks to people. Just make sure you're giving them to everyone.

If all men are not created equal, then you don't have a United States of America.
When the one great scorer comes to write against your name, he writes not that you won or lost but how you played the game.

The stance and stare of a wolf you find yourself alone with will tell you that he is prepared to treat you as you would treat him. Whether that comforts or frightens you, he has told you all you need know about both.

So not the Catholic Church, the western-view Rome, with a Pope -

Yet,

"One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Orthodox Church."



This two minute video -- That Orthodox Priest looks young and hip even wearing that gold chain.

Easy high budget video straight from Church - take a look.


















(Always walking it out with God... never just "sitting" still - -- This channel has about 14 two-minute- well edited videos on the Basics of the Orthodox Church - and remember how influencial German heritage was.... (Remember the close vote on official language?) Over half of the souls who lead us to our rights and original laws... followed this faith. Very interesting.

Re: Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people.
Orthodox means different things to different people,
but in the context of the Founding Fathers,
it means the Protestant denominations that
were dominant at that time,
as they are to this day.

(Anglican, Methodist, Baptist, etc.)

It doesn't mean the Eastern or Greek or Russian
"Orthodox" churches, and certainly not the
Roman Catholic church, though Maryland was a
predominantly Catholic colony.

One of the founders and signers of the Declaration
of Independence, was a Catholic, Charles Carroll
from Maryland.

Two Catholics signed the Constitution,
The rest were of Protestant denominations.

The predominant church was the Anglican church,
which considers themselves "orthodox", maintaining
the fundamental beliefs of Christianity, but ALL
the orthodox denominations did also.


America was founded BY Christians, FOR Christians,
and whether you like it or not,
THAT FACT, and THAT FACT ALONE,
is

WHAT MADE AMERICA GREAT.

T. Jefferson had the perm. revolution in mind when he drafted the infamous article I, section 7 paragraphs 2 & 3 of your constitution which imply a dictatorship.

Requiring a republican form of government was the coup de grâce, rendering the constitution inconsistent, suicidal.

Keep voting, clueless plebeians, as per the const., state legislature designated electors elect the pres. & vice pres., not you.

You know what I've noticed that the workplace has become a place where people who follow the rules are despised. Your boss will have you sign dozens of papers to the company saying "I WILL NOT DO SUCH AND SUCH" and then a few days later ask you to do such and such that you signed a few days ago. It's like managers are not communicating with their bosses and pass all these rules that are very draining on production, so when you follow these rules without cutting any corners, your boss gets angry at you for taking so long.

It's like the modern workplace wants workers who will give their word that they will or will not do something, but then turn a blind eye to it and keep cutting corners and doing things that keep production as high as possible.
