“The doctrines proclaimed by Jesus and his apostles include lessons of peace, benevolence, meekness, brotherly love and charity.”

John Quincy Adams (Founding Father/Sixth President of the United States)

“Christian benevolence makes it our indispensable duty to lay ourselves out to serve our fellow creatures to the utmost of our power.”

John Adams (Founding Father/Second President of the United States)

“The first and almost the only book deserving of universal attention is the Bible. I have myself for many years made it a practice to read the Bible once every year. I have always endeavored to read it with the same spirit and with the same temper of mind which I now recommend to you: that is, with the intention and desire that it may contribute to my advance in wisdom and virtue.”

John Quincy Adams (Founding Father/Sixth President of the United States)

“Christianity made be contemplated in two important aspects, first in reference to its influence on this world, and second, in reference to our destiny in the world to come.”

DeWitt Clinton (Senator/Twelfth Amendment to the Constitution)

“To the free and universal reading of the Bible… men (are) much indebted for right views of civil liberty. The Bible is… a book which teaches man his own individual responsibility, his own dignity, and his equality with his fellow man.”

Daniel Webster (Founding Father/”Defender of the Constitution”)

“The Bible…should be read in our schools in preference to all other books from its containing the greatest portion of that kind of knowledge which is calculated to produce private and public happiness.”

Dr. Benjamin Rush (Founding Father/Declaration of Independence)

“The Bible is the chief moral cause of all that is good and the best corrector of all that is evil in human society- the best book for regulating the temporal (that is secular) concerns of men.”

Noah Webster (Founding Father/ “The Founder of Merriam-Webster Dictionary”)

“The Bible is a book worth more than all the other books that were ever printed.”

Patrick Henry (Founding Father/Declaration of Independence)

“Almighty God, we acknowledge our dependence upon Thee, and we beg Thy blessings upon us, our parents, our teachers, and our Country.”

This is the prayer that was stated in the case of Engel v. Vitale, that got the 1962 Supreme Court to decide that it was unconstitutional to allow prayer in schools. That same year the court decided to find out how many people believed in religion or God and in the case of Abington v. Schempp, they found out that only 3% of the people did not believe in religion or God, that means that 97% of the people did. The courts letting the minority lead the majority, sound familiar?

“Human law must rest its authority ultimately upon the authority of that law which is Divine… Far from being rivals or enemies, religion and law are twin sisters, friends, and mutual assistants.”

James Wilson (Founding Father/Constitution/Declaration of Independence)
