"The hope of reversing the trends of decay in our republic now lies with the Christian public in America.We cannot expect help from the liberals.They certainly are not going to call our nation back to righteousness and neither are the pornographers,the smut peddlers,and those who are corrupting our youth.Moral Americans must be willing to put their reputations,their fortunes,and their very lives on the line for this great nation of ours.Would that we had the courage of our forefathers who knew the great responsibility that freedom carries with it....Our Founding Fathers separated church and state in function,but never intended to establish a government void of God.As is evidenced by our Constitution,good people in America must exert an influence and provide a conscience and climate of morality in which it is difficult to go wrong,not difficult for people to go right in America."
