HowardAmen; I read this book and agree this book is an awesome book on America's Christian Heritage! The proof is there that The USA was founded as a Christian nation! Our currency says In God We Trust! Jesus Christ has blessed America in so many ways! When prayer the Bible were taken out of the public schools in 1963 1964 our nation has fallen away from our Lord Savior Jesus Christ! Did you know??? "Separation of Church and State" is found nowhere in the Constitution? The U.S. Capital Building was converted to a church every Sunday morning? Washington D.C.'s worship team every Sunday morning was the U.S. Marine Corps Band? Congressional declarations actually called for "Christianity" to be "spread all over the Earth"? The first U.S. Supreme Court opened with a four hour Prayer and Communion service? The Bible was a required reading textbook in the public schools? President Thomas Jefferson ordered that schools use the Bible when teaching students to read? Territories applying for Statehood were required to teach religion in their schools? (Northwest Ordinance; Section XIV; Article III; passed by the House; passed by the Senate and signed into law by President George Washington; August 7; 1789)In the year of our Lord May 1st 2011Mark HowardCosta Mesa;California; USA0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
