I find that people are afraid of the concept of getting our ideas from God’s Law in the Bible for use in our own Civil Government. Of course, the very same Biblical Law is one of the foundations of law in Western Civilization! In other words, we already did this as a society over hundreds…
The 80’s
Here is a quote from Ronald Reagan courtesy of Reagan2020.us: “Our friends in the other party will never forgive us for our success, and are doing everything in their power to rewrite history. Listening to the liberals, you’d think that the 1980’s were the worst period since the Great Depression, filled with suffering and despair….
The Myth of Class Warfare
Here is a quote from Ronald Reagan courtesy of PatriotPost.us: “How can limited government and fiscal restraint be equated with lack of compassion for the poor?

The Shadow Sexual Revolution – Legalizing Pedophilia
