... So?

Oh roy, you're not going to say out loud that you believe Obama made them do that, are you?
I guess you didn't notice the dates on that one, huh? Finally something like this that we can't blame on The Man.

James McHenry..signer of the Constitution.

Without the Bible, in vain do we increase penal laws and draw entrenchments around our institutions.

Bibles are strong protections. Where they abound, men cannot pursue wicked courses and at the same time enjoy quiet conscience.

George Mason..Signer of the Declaration of Independence

I desire to bless and praise the name of God most high for appointing me my birth in a land of Gospel Light where the glorious tidings of a Savior and of pardon and salvation through Him have been continually sounding in mine ears.

There is plenty of evidence, and always has been. It isn't a "notion". You've been taught a lie.

When I was young and in grade school, everyone knew that they were Christians. That is when our history was taught in school.

The mans book is well footnoted, and all original sources. The "revisionists" have distorted our history for many years.

And what makes you say that, buddy boy? What makes you so damn smart?

Beck's viewers are better informed than you are, obviously.

Sorry, but it is you that hasn't got a clue. Worse, you won't even bother to learn the truth. You'd rather wallow in ignorance.

Benjamin Rush...Signer of the Declaration of Independence. Surgeon General of the Continental Army, Ratifier of the Constitution.

"The Gospel of Jesus Christ prescribes the wisest rules for just conduct in every situation of life. Happy they who are enabled to obey them in all situations!"

"The only means of establishing and perpetuating our republican forms of government is the universal education of our youth in the principles of Christianity by means of the Bible"


"The great enemy of the salvation of man, in my opinion, never invented a more effective means of limiting Christianity from the world than by persuading mankind that it was improper to read the Bible at schools."

"Christianity is the only true and perfect religion; and… in proportion as mankind adopt its principles and obey its precepts, they will be wise and happy."

"The Bible… should be read in our schools in preference to all other books because it contains the greatest portion of that kind of knowledge which is calculated to produce private and public happiness."

Liberals have distorted the truth regarding the Founders and subsequent leaders of this country regarding their belief in Christianity and the Holy Bible.

America is a Christian Nation.

No, history has already been rewritten. Beck (and others) are trying to set the record straight, using original sources. What better place to go than to the words of the founders themselves? Right?

Why not inform yourself? Why wallow in ignorance all your life? You have been taught a lie. Are you going to continue to believe it, or are you going to learn the truth?

Buy the damn books and educate yourself!
