The writers of the Declaration |
America was founded on a basic Biblical principal that the Americans of today have strayed from. The Founding Fathers incorporated the Bible into the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence. Almost everyone in those days believed there was a God, even though some chose not to submit themselves to him. Up until the Civil War it remained that way. Then people started going downhill. After 1900 the Bible was not quite a foreign language, but close to it. Now, everyone thinks of the Bible as the "geek's"book. Hindus, Muslims, and Buddhists get more respect then us. Why? It's not like Islam is peace loving (ha ha). Everyone is afraid of them, therefore they get respect.
