>The Constitution of the United States begins with the preamble:
>
>"We the People of the United States in order to form a more perfect union,
>establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common
>defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to
>ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for
>the United States of America"..
>
>Sealed under glass in archival preservation in Washington D.C., the
>Constitution of the United States of America lulls Americans into a false
>sense of security, believing that nothing can change the ideals and intent
>of its God-fearing framers. Most Americans believe that our Constitution has
>survived intact for more than 200 years without any significant change.
>Nothing can be further from the truth.
>
>The U.S. Supreme Court after 150 years of bible study in the public schools
>of this country banned bible reading and prayer in our public classrooms and
>declared in 1962, 1963, and 1992 the following practices to be violations of
>the first Amendment: The recitation of prayers composed by anyone including
>school officials, bible reading and recitation of the Lord's Prayer, and
>prayers at public school graduations.
>
>Since the first of those Supreme Court decisions, Juvenile crime has
>sky-rocketed, teen pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases have
>increased dramatically, over 400 %, violent crime (including Domestic
>violence) has risen 600% over the last 30 years, teen suicide is up 300%,
>and depression among children is up 1000%. Every day television and
>newspapers inundate us with horrific accounts of crime in our communities.
>
>Daily we learn of the mass killing of students in our schools, shootings
>taken place in day-care centers, and places of worship. Is there any wonder
>why so many young people are committing such horrible crimes against
>innocent victims, when we protect the rights of atheists, and abolish the
>recognition of Almighty God in our classrooms?
>
>The vast majority of Americans are hard working, God fearing people busily
>caring for their children and families; contributing to their communities;
>paying their taxes, and trusting public officials to run the daily business
>of their government, in the best interest of the people.
>
>What many fail to see, however, are the diabolical forces of moral
>corruption working feverishly, behind closed doors. They are out there every
>day walking through the halls of Congress, State Legislatures, and the
>courts. The Gay and Lesbian coalitions, rabid feminist groups, United
>Nations one-world government radicals, and the American Civil Liberties
>Union all competing for power, and many using their political action
>committee funds to influence elected officials to represent these parasitic
>groups who proselytize and force us under the protection of law to tolerate
>and accept their despicable conduct and agenda.
>
>Planned Parenthood and the American Civil Liberties Union constantly use
>their influence to promote their own self-centered philosophy. All the
>while, these individuals make concerted efforts to ensure that any public
>reference to God, prayer, or family values, remain relics of the past. Their
>members become upset when caring parents speak out against the perversion of
>the Internet, cyber-porn and cyber-sex chat rooms, violent video games,
>wrestling mania, and music videos, designed and targeted to compromise the
>morals of innocent children. We are losing our voice America; we have
>allowed special interests and lobbyists to control our government.
>
>So many contradictions confront the American people. We stood by silently
>and watched atheistic malcontents abolish school prayer and replace it with
>(the all too familiar) yellow crime scene tape, metal detectors, and drug
>sniffing dogs. Daily we witness aberrant behavior in the classrooms because
>we have stripped teachers and principles of the authority necessary to do
>their jobs. As parents we teach our children to pledge allegiance to the
>flag of the United States of America. We also pledge that we are one nation
>"Under God".. But to some that's not true, thanks to gutless liberal judges
>who wage tyrannical power against the citizens of this country, and power
>hungry politicians who are more concerned about being politically correct,
>than morally wrong, and sell their vote to the highest bidder or support
>group who will radically distort the mandate of our Constitution to fit
>their agenda. How do we combat this insanity?
>
>As concerned citizens and Christians, we need to display and read in our
>classrooms once again, and with pride, the Ten Commandments - the
>Judeo-Christian foundation of our entire Constitutional system of law. We
>need to display them in other public buildings with as much pride as they
>are in the Supreme Court of the United States.
>
>To our disgrace as a nation we have caved in to the wishes of the depraved,
>and have allowed them to systematically excluded God from our midst. All at
>an incalculable cost to our very survival.
>
>They have legalized abortion and caused the deaths of 40 million children.
>Now Americans must desperately seek adoptions from Korea, China, and other
>foreign countries to fill this nation's void of childless marriages. Are we
>so blind to this insidious culture of death that we have completely lost
>sight of the basic fundamental relationship that exists between God and
>ourselves? He is our creator, God, and we are his creation made in His
>image, adopted Sons and Daughters of a loving Father, who requests only that
>we love Him, and each other in return for the gift of life.
>
>Stop and think what we, the United States of America as a nation, have
>condoned and sanctioned - the wholesale killing of all those innocent
>children as a direct result of the action of unchecked special interest
>groups, and the arrogant United States Supreme Courts unjust 1973 (Roe v
>Wade) decision, (which now includes the full term barbaric partial birth
>abortions). Consider for a moment the magnitude of this crime, (a holocaust
>in the eyes of God,) and how it will effect us as a nation. God hears the
>cry of the poor, especially the silent screams of the unborn.
>
>These deaths will not go un-avenged. God will judge those people in the
>abortion industry, and those individuals who continue to promote it, and
>cause it to happen. God will condemn them for bringing about the
>catastrophic loss these children and their offspring represent to suffering
>humanity. Generations of children, whose promise and contributions known
>only to God, will not be forgotten.
>
>Abortion is not about a woman's right to choose it is about a billion-dollar
>industry; it is about death, and it is about despair during a moment of
>crisis. Every woman, who chooses abortion over life, not only destroys her
>child, but victimizes herself, her family, and humanity forever. Everyone is
>included in that countless number of victims including both physical and
>spiritual injury.
>
>This is the inevitable consequence of abortion, and unless these misguided
>mothers repent and ask for God's forgiveness and mercy, despair and
>loneliness will follow them all the days of their lives. Contrary to the
>propaganda espoused by the National Organization for Woman, abortion is not
>a woman's right, it is a woman's wrong. Abortion is not a woman's
>liberation; it is a woman's worst nightmare. The secret of life is to
>conform our will to the will of God. The promise of death is to conform our
>will to ourselves.
>
>If we fail as a nation to ask God's mercy and forgiveness, take back our
>inheritance as a holy people of a loving God, demand respect for God and His
>commandments, our nation as we know it will no longer receive His blessings
>or protection. We will deservedly be left to our own sick demise; consumed
>by our chosen sexual perversion, and drug-infested, hedonistic lifestyles,
>just like the Romans and all the other atheistic civilizations that followed
>their gods of lust to the doomed alters of Sodom and Gomorrah.
>
>Planned Parenthood a worldwide organization dedicated to using abortions as
>a means of population control have set up clinics throughout this country,
>supported by the courts and legislature. They are without the authority and
>consent of parents distributing free condoms to our children, thereby
>encouraging dangerous pre-marital adolescent sexuality under the pretense of
>"Safe Sex for minors". Those of us in law enforcement, call this behavior
>"pedophilia".
>
>Did you know that Planned Parenthood has successfully lobbied and received
>legislative approval that justify giving your children free condoms whether
>you approve it or not? They have, by way of "Judicial Tyranny," successfully
>blocked the State of Florida and other states from enforcing laws that make
>it mandatory for abortion providers and other health care facilities to
>notify you as a parent if your underage daughter seeks an abortion or if any
>of your underage children is under the care and treatment of a psychiatrist,
>or being treated for a sexually transmitted disease, including AIDS, that
>could be introduced to the rest of your family without your knowledge.
>
>Like you, I am concerned, about the safety and quality of life for our
>families. As a Christian I am disturbed by the sacrilegious offences our
>nation is committing against God, and the number of lives, juvenile and
>adult, that are needlessly wasted in prison, and addicted to drugs. I cannot
>help but wonder: is there a correlation between the sickening moral
>bankruptcy of today and the liberal court decisions that began in the 60-s?
>As a people, we have failed to accept the hard evidence of subtle but
>dramatic destructive change that commenced in this country with those
>decisions of the United States Supreme Court.
>
>The Court interpreted acknowledging God, under whose protection we publicly
>place our nation, as a violation of the First Amendment when it is recited
>in our public schools. For these reasons, and with an urgent cry, I write
>this letter, Wake up, America! I write to warn Americans lulled into apathy
>and carelessness: be aware, there is an insidious diabolical scheme
>supported by media moguls, and Washington politicos that are robbing us of
>our true religious heritage and Constitutional freedoms.
>
>Our country is in great peril, not from an approaching army, but from a
>satanic pestilence that has already invaded South America, and our own
>nation with a drug-infested culture littering our country and neighborhoods
>with untold corpses, and its collateral family damage. It is the United
>States Government prohibition against Almighty God that continues to feed
>this immorality and insult His Supreme Majesty.
>
>Only prayer and the ability to say Lord Jesus, we are sorry for having
>betrayed our promise to you by having turned our backs on you and your
>Commandments. Please give us the grace to confess our sins and humbly ask
>your forgiveness. Restore us once again, as a holy people, and one nation
>truthfully Under God.
