Below are a few quotes by four of America's forefathers related to the Christian foundation of the United States of America (USA). These are often abbreviated. distorted, edited, or misquoted to achieve a political purpose other than the point the original speaker meant to make. In celebrating the freedoms offered in this country and for the future of America, it is important to know and understand history, as well as what was actually said and done. It is important to know the facts and find the truth instead of accepting political incorrectness, which could lead to the tyranny of government the founding fathers warned about.

"Resistance to tyranny becomes the Christian and social duty of each individual… Continue steadfast and, with a proper sense of your dependence on God, nobly defend those rights which heaven gave, and no man ought to take from us," - John Hancock.
" | "We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Avarice, ambition, revenge or gallantry would break the strongest cords of our Constitution as a whale goes through a net. Our Constitution is designed only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate for any other." - John Adams
 | | “The First Amendment has erected a wall of separation between church and state, but that wall is a one-directional wall. It keeps the government from running the church, but it makes sure that Christian principles will always stay in government.” - Thomas Jefferson |
