Anyone who walks into the United States Supreme Court building in Washington, D.C. will see carved into the stone near the top of the building a row of the world’s famous lawgivers. Each one of these impressive dignitaries is looking upon the one in the middle, who is facing forward with a full front view. Who is this person in the middle? HE IS MOSES, AND HE IS HOLDING THE TEN COMMANDMENTS.

As you enter the Supreme Court courtroom, where critical decisions are made every day, you will have to pass through two huge oak doors. Upon these doors you will see the TEN COMMANDMENTS ENGRAVED ON THE LOWER PORTION OF EACH DOOR.

As you walk around Washington, D.C. and look at the various monuments, you will see that there are Bible verses engraved on many of them.

James Madison, the fourth President, known as “The Father of Our Constitution,” made the following statement: “We have staked the whole of all our political institutions upon the capacity of mankind for self-government, upon the capacity of each and all of us to govern ourselves, to control ourselves, to sustain ourselves according to the Ten Commandments of God.”

Patrick Henry, patriot and founding father of our country said: “It cannot be emphasized too strongly or too often that this great nation was founded not by religionists but by Christians, not on religions but on the Gospel of Jesus Christ.”

Every session of Congress begins with prayer by a paid preacher, whose salary has been paid by the taxpayer since 1777. Fifty-two of the fifty-five founders of the Constitution were members of the established orthodox churches in the colonies.

The very first Supreme Court Justice, John Jay, said, “Americans should select and prefer Christians as their rulers.”

So now, tell me, what has happened to bring us to a place in the history of our country when a Federal Judge can strike the words,”under God” out of the Pledge of Allegiance?
