MESSAGES FOR THE U.S. SECULAR RELIGIONS

MESSAGES FOR THE U.S. SECULAR RELIGIONS
IN PURSUIT OF THE TRUTH - HTTP://WWW.CINOPSBEGONEBLOGSPOT.COM - FRI. JUNE 23/17
PREFACE:
    WE HAVE THE SECULAR RELIGION OF THE COMMUNISTS. FROM A DRUDGE REPORT WE HAVE ABOUT FIVE THOUSAND AMERICAN COMMUNISTS. WE CALLED THEIR SUPPORTERS "FELLOW TRAVELLERS" AND USEFUL IDIOTS. THEN WE HAVE THE NATIONALSECULAR RELIGION OF THE AMERICAN PROGRESSIVES. NOTE ANY PROMOTED NATIONAL RELIGION IS UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
     OUR PAST AMERICAN LEADERSHIP PRIOR TO OUR  FOUNDING FATHERS AND AFTERWARDS HAD A MINDSET DIFFERENT FROM THE PROGRESSIVE THOUGHTS OF TODAY. THEIR THOUGHTS HAVE A BREADTH OF FRESH AIR, AMERICAN AND NOT EUROPEAN.
THE FOLLOWING ARE EXCERPTS FROM THE CALENDAR BOOK: "THE GLORY OF AMERICA" FORWARD BY BILL BRIGHT WITH PETER MARSHAL AND DAVID MANUEL. 1999.
JUNE 19 TH:
    CHARLES HODGE, PROFESSOR AND THEOLOGIAN OF PRINCETON SEMINARY, DIED ON THIS DAY IN 1878. TWO YEARS BEFORE, HE HAD DECLARED ABOUT AMERICA:
    "No man is molested for his religion or for his want of religion. No man is required to profess any form of faith, or to join any religious association. More than this cannot reasonably be demanded. More, however, is demanded. The infidel demands the government should be conducted on the principle that Christianity is false. The atheist demands that it should be conducted on the assumption that there is no God ... The sufficient answer to all this is: it cannot possibly be done." Hall, Revolution. 156
JUNE 18 TH:
    IN 1825, THE CORNERSTONE OF THE BUNKER HILL MONUMENT WAS LAID FIFTY YEARS AFTER THAT BATTLE. 20,000 ATTENDED THE CEREMONIOUS IN BOSTON, AMONG THEM THE MARQUIS DE LAFAYETTE, WHO ESCHEWED THE SHADE OF THE PAVILION FOR DISTINGUISHED GUEST AND SAT IN THE OPEN WITH OTHER VETERANS OF THE WAR FOR INDEPENDENCE. DECLARED THE GUEST SPEAKER, DANIEL WEBSTER:
    "Let our object be, our country, our whole country, and nothing but our country. And by the blessing of God, may that country itself become a vast and splendid monument - not of oppression and terror, but of Wisdom, of Peace, and of Liberty, upon which the world may gaze with admiration forever!" Lewis, Daniel, 123
JUNE 16 TH:
    AMONG AMERICA'S MOST FAMOUS SOLDIERS DURING THE WAR FOR INDEPENDENCE WERE THE MINUTEMEN OF MASSACHUSETTS. CONCERNED THAT THEIR LIVES REFLECT CHRISTIAN PRINCIPLES, THE STATE PROVINCIAL CONGRESS EXHORTED THEM WITH THESE WORDS"
    "Your are placed by Providence in the post of honor, because it is the post of danger... The eyes not only of North America and the whole British Empire, but all of Europe are upon you. Let us be, therefore, altogether solicitous that no disorderly behavior, nothing unbecoming our character as Americans, as citizens and Christians, be justly chargeable to us." Hall, Constitution
JUNE 12 TH:
    JOHN WINTHROP'S "MODEL OF CHRISTIAN CHARITY" WAS AS IMPORTANT A DOCUMENT AS THE PILGRIMS' "MAYFLOWER COMPACT." AT ITS HEART WAS THIS SUMMATION:
    "Thus stands the cause between God and us: we are entered into covenant with Him for this work. We have taken out a Commission: the Lord hath given us leave to draw our own articles ... Now the only way to avoid shipwreck and to provide for our posterity, is to follow the counsel of Micah: to do justly, to love mercy, to walk humbly with our God. For this end, we must be knot together in this work as one man.... So shall we keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace."
George H. Kubeck
