"It cannot be emphasized too strongly or too often that this great nation was founded not by religionists, but by Christians, not on Religions, but on the Gospel of Jesus Christ" --Patrick Henry "Can the liberties of a nation be thought secure when we have removed their only firm basis, a conviction in the minds of the people that these liberties are of the gift of God? --Thomas Jefferson: Notes on Virginia, 1782. "God governs in the affairs of men. If a sparrow cannot fall to the ground without His notice, is it probable that an empire can rise without His aid?" --Ben Franklin - Constitutional Convention, June 28, 1787 "It is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey His will, to be grateful for His benefits, and humbly to implore His protection and favor..." --President George Washington, October 3, 1789 "Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, religion and morality are indispensable supports…And let us with caution indulge the supposition that morality can be maintained without religion?" --George Washington "Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other." --Alexander Hamilton "We have staked the whole future of American civilization, not upon the power of government, far from it. We have staked the future of all our political institutions upon the capacity of mankind for self government; upon the capacity of each and all of us to govern ourselves, to control ourselves, to sustain ourselves according to the Ten Commandments of God…religion is the basis and Foundation of Government." --James Madison "Let us pray for our nation. Let us pray for those who have never known Jesus Christ and redeeming love, for moral forces everywhere, for our national leaders. Let prayer be our passion. Let prayer be our practice." --Robert E Lee, General Confederate Army "It is fit and becoming in all people, at all times, to acknowledge and revere the Supreme Government of God...in full conviction that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom." --Abraham Lincoln after the battle of Bull Run, July, 1861 "Let us look forward to the time when we can take the flag of our country and nail it below the Cross...Christ first, country next!" --Andrew Johnson "A righteous people simply cannot exist apart from the aspiration to liberty and justice. The Christian religion and its incumbent morality is tied to the cause of freedom with a Gordian knot; loose one from the other and both are sent asunder." -- Theodore Roosevelt
