War against Christians in America

To the editor:
There are today several ominous movements going on in America and in the Western world, for the most part undetected, which I believe bring great evil unless we understand them and do something about them. There is, first of all, a tremendous change that is coming about in the relationship of religion and the state in America.
It is happening so slowly that we are like that frog sitting in the pot of warm water that is gradually being heated to the boiling point. The frog just sits there and is slowly being boiled to death. Like the frog, we do not even perceive what is happening. If it goes unchecked much further it will, as it is beginning to do right now, bring about destruction of the liberties of Christians in this land.
Does the First Amendment speak of separation of church and state? The First Amendment states: “Congress shall make no law respecting the establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise of.” The First Amendment teachers the separation of the state from the church. It is a one-way street. It restrains the federal government. The Bill of Rights was written to restrain the federal government from interfering with the liberties of the people — a wall of separation. Now the federal government is unshackling itself from the First Amendment and the shackles are being put on the church. Our freedoms are in grave jeopardy today and we sit like the frog in the pot as the water heats up.
America has become the battleground between the world’s two oldest religions. The first religion to appear in the history of mankind worships “God,” as did our forefathers. The second (humanism) worships man. It is not a question of whether politics and the Ten Commandments will be mixed. It’s a question of which religion will be mixed with American politics and buildings. Will it be the Ten Commandments that worships and deifies God as our forefathers did, or a religion that deifies man?
James Madison, a chief architect of the Constitution, explained the nature of the American Republic in these words: “We have staked the whole of all our political institutions upon the capacity for self-government, upon the capacity of each and all of us to govern ourselves according to the Ten Commandments of God.”
Now we are moving irresistibly toward the Soviet Communist concept of separation of Church and state, and that is very dangerous. The Soviet view is this: the church is free to do anything that the government is not engaged in — and the government is engaged in most everything. Therefore, the church is free to stay in its four walls, pray and sing hymns. This is what is happening in America.
Since judges’ carelessness of God’s plan, prayer and the Ten Commandments have been thrown out of our schools we have seen the results — children killing children and the extinction by mass destruction of the unborn.
Just walk through our government buildings and you may be pleasantly surprised to see what our Godly forefathers placed upon the walls. Don’t be like the frog and just sit there.
We must come out of our comfort zones and go and raise our voices and vote on Nov. 6.
Thank you very much.
As I see it.
