We have recently changed the direction of this blog.
It seems that over 90% of the citizens of these United States are Christians and yet these citizen's are being denied their rights to worship and express their love for God and Christ by the distortions of a few.

We are going to explore those distortions as we convert this site to an information base that will show you why our founding fathers did not want to separate church and state, they just did not want the church to run the state.

How do you feel about the Separation of Church and State?

My belief is that there is no such thing.
Our ancestors came to this continent to escape religious domination and possible persecution. They believed in a Creator and wished to worship God with freedom and in a manor of their own choice. They wanted a government that allowed freedom, respected God and encouraged the guidance of a supreme being in the daily procedures of establishing and maintaining a government.

There was one thing they did not want and that was a church hierarchy controlling the administration of the government. But they still prayed for guidance, freely worshipped during meetings and marked their buildings with religious reminders.

Over 90% of our population believes in God, and almost 90% believe in Christ and a government of the people, by the people and for the people.
The people want to worship their God in the manner they want and they want the heads of government to recognize the influence of God. Our Supreme Court has taken God out of the government, out of our schools and changed our direction. The Supreme Court is required to interpret the laws passed by the other two branches of government. However, the court has seen fit to interpret the laws in the image of their own principles and so our religious freedom has been taken from us by the Court becoming a third house of law making. There is no power stronger than the voice of the citizens, so you and I can make changes happen.

This past weekend a program was presented on Fox News narrated by Newt Gingrich called “One Nation Under God” and many of these issues were explained. If this program repeats itself I encourage you to watch it.

In his book, “Winning the Future” Speaker Gingrich tells about the many markings in Washington related to religion. He has carried this further in a new book, “Rediscovering God in America”.

First, we are going to introduce you to the subject by asking you to read a nice article by a friend of all of us, Mr. Ben Stein. Click on his name and read his article.

After you read Ben's touching and pointed message read an introduction to the history of the subject at About.com in an article by Curtis Harris titled:
Solving real problems--Is there a place for God in government?

In our next posting we will review some comments by Newt Gingrich about the intentions of the founding fathers. Interesting stuff.
Come back often as I rebuild this site into a God in Government resource.
Thank you.
