"It is natural to man to indulge in the illusions of hope. We are apt to shut our eyes against a painful truth-and listen to the song of that siren, till she transforms us into beasts."
Patrick Henry
From the Chaplain's Corner:
Consider these words by John Adams, our second President, who also served as chairman of the American Bible Society... In an address to military leaders, he said, "We have no government armed with the power capable of contending with human passions, unbridled by morality and true religion. Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other."And, finally, their weekly Bumper Sticker:
You have only the rights you are willing to fight for.
