A friend sent this to me. Pretty interesting and I wonder to myself, if it worked for 220 years why to we think we can do better now...

DID YOU KNOW?

As you walk up the steps to the building which houses the U.S. Supreme Court you can see near the top of the building a row of the world's law givers and each one is facing one in the middle who is facing forward with a full frontal view - it is Moses and he is holding the Ten Commandments!

DID YOU KNOW?

As you enter the Supreme Court courtroom, the two huge oak doors have the Ten Commandments engraved on each lower portion of each door.

DID YOU KNOW?

As you sit inside the courtroom, you can see the wall, right above where the Supreme Court judges sit, a display of the Ten Commandments!

DID YOU KNOW?

There are Bible verses etched in stone all over the Federal Buildings and Monuments in Washington, D.C.

DID YOU KNOW?

James Madison, the fourth president, known as "The Father of Our Constitution" made the following statement "We have staked the whole 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."

DID YOU KNOW?

Patrick Henry, that patriot and Founding Father of our country said, "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."

DID YOU KNOW? Every session of Congress begins with a prayer by a paid preacher, whose salary has been paid by the taxpayer since 1777. DID YOU KNOW? Fifty-two of the 55 founders of the Constitution were members of the established orthodox churches in the colonies.

DID YOU KNOW?

Thomas Jefferson worried that the Courts would overstep their authority and instead of interpreting the law would begin making law....an oligarchy....the rule of few over many.

DID YOU KNOW?

The very first Supreme Court Justice, John Jay, said, "Americans should select and prefer Christians as their rulers."

How, then, have we gotten to the point that everything we have done for 220 years in this country is now suddenly wrong and unconstitutional?

DID YOU KNOW

...that slavery was approved by the same constitutional framers?

...but I think I hear what you are saying, yeah. The same tired old 'our God is better than your God' crap you get from conservative Christians everywhere.

Freedom of Christianity is what the constitution should have said, by gum.

DID YOU KNOW?

Weed kept in a stash box inscribed with the secret name of God is safe from discovery and the resulting embarassment of arrest?

DID YOU KNOW?

You have to hide the inscription under a picture ot Timothy Leary or the name is no longer secret and the effectiveness is lost?

DID YOU KNOW?

That if the above is too difficult you can just put the golden rule on the stash box and hope the cops are feeling charitable?


DID YOU KNOW?

That who ever wrote the ten commandments in all the places described above probably thought they were practicing the free expression of religeous and moral wisdom?

Did you know most of that document is false. Sounds good but do a search on Snopes.
