“Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” — John Adams, Architect of American government
You don’t have to believe in God to participate in the American experience, but you do need to be moral to enjoy the blessings of liberty.
How do you measure morality: you treat people the way that you want to be treated. You love your neighbor as yourself.
Moral and religious people have in-built restraints and don’t require masters, baby sitters, or a nanny state.
In Proverbs 22:6, the Bible says, “Train up a child in the way that he should go and when he is old he will not depart from it.”
There is great wisdom in those words. We are allowing children in our public schools to be taught to be immoral by tolerating racially divisive rhetoric and sexually explicit material on our library shelves- then we forcibly exclude God from the halls and classrooms. We are producing a generation of children in America who will be ungovernable by our Constitution. It is asinine that our government would produce a system to teach children to be ungovernable: immoral and irreligious.
We must return to Biblical and virtuous principles of morality, and ensure that our public schools are teaching American children to be moral and independent. The American ethos (Americanism) must be taught: we have Creator-given liberties with equality under the law.
We must teach them to love their neighbors as they would want to be loved. The only way to preserve the foundation of American liberty and prosperity is fully returning these principles to our public school system and making every effort to reproduce them in our children. We can preserve the blessing of liberty for our posterity in S.C. and it starts with teaching our children that they should strive to be both moral and religious people.

Well, he was right. Americans are no longer moral or religious.
And are ungovernable.
Everyone did what was right in his own eyes. Judges 17:6b
