THE CONSTITUTION: What Was It Made For?


The more I read the founding fathers, the more I am amazed at their wisdom. John Adams said, "Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other." Ben Franklin said, "Only a virtuous people are capable of freedom. As nations become corrupt and vicious, they have more need of masters." This creates a very big predicament and problem for the present day conservative as well as the Democrat who still cares about the Constitution.

I am one of those relics, from years gone past like many others, who believe that Republicans must be both social and fiscal conservatives, because, in the fight for freedom, the country's moral compass is at least as important as the fiscal one, because in the end a country and the people in it will either be governed by God or by tyrants." With the above quotes and hundreds more like them from our foundering fathers, the warning; to us all is very clear, it should be crystal clear to all Americans. As this nation become more ungodly, immoral, and unspiritual as a country, we lose the aspiration, the desire, and the ability to govern ourselves with good manners, good morals and faith that this country was founded and built on. Because of this failure in our society we have the need for more and more laws to be made and passed to control us.

We can see this very thing happening at a swift and rapid speed. So, tell me this:  Is it any wonder that we as citizens are losing our freedom and the Constitution is being abandoned and discarded more and more as time goes by? If the Constitution is inadequate or not enough to govern a morally wrong and irreligious, ungodly people, we had better be supporting those who uphold morals and religion found in the Bible, or we can expect freedom to keep being taken from us, here a little and there a little and tyranny. Oppression, dictatorship, and totalitarianism will be its replacement. We here the old saying “God Bless America” well friends it is time, before it is too late, for “America to bless God!”
