LETTERS: For, against pastor's Q&A It is indeed interesting and ironic how the outspoken rationalize fallacious inclusions of such clauses as "separation of church & state" when found nowhere in the Constitution, or its Bill of Rights which delineates freedoms of speech, religion, and peaceful assembly within the same sentence, ensuring there shall be no infringements of government suppressing legal, public exercise thereof, nor excluding references thereto in open, public debate of these concepts during official operation of the three (3) branches of government. |

There are a few people who couldn't be with us here today, so I have brought messages from them:
Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, religion and morality are indispensable supports. In vain would that man claim the tribute of patriotism who should labor to subvert these great pillars of human happiness - these firmest props of the duties of men and citizens. The mere politician, equally with the pious man, ought to respect and cherish them. - George Washington.
The longer I live the more convinced I become that God governs in the affairs of man. - Benjamin Franklin.
Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other. - John Adams.
Can the liberties of a nation be secure when we have removed a conviction that these liberties are the gift of God? - Thomas Jefferson.
