"Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political
prosperity, religion and morality are indispensable
supports...And let us with caution indulge the supposition
that morality can be maintained without religion...
Reason and experience forbid us to expect that national
morality can prevail to the exclusion of religious principle."
-George Washington.

"Religion, morality and knowledge being necessary to good
government and the happiness of mankind, schools and the
means of education shall forever be encouraged. - Northwest
Ordinance, U.S. Congress, 1787.

"Only a virtuous people are capable of freedom.  As nations
become corrupt and vicious, they have more need of masters."
-Benjamin Franklin.

Rebecca O'Dell TownsendDear Patriots,
Our founding fathers believed
two things to be indispensable
in maintaining freedom: virtue
and knowledge.  It is the most
basic principle of our system
of government that men are
only free if government is
limited.  But government can
only remain limited if the People
have no need to be forced to
behave civilly.   Likewise, government will only remain limited
as long as the People know how to control that government.

Our public school systems were established to instill these
two foundations of freedom: morality and knowledge. 
Benjamin Franklin, along with our other founding fathers,
felt that there were three "fundamental points in all sound
religion" necessary to provide "good government and the
happiness of mankind" that should be taught in public
schools:
1.   There is one God, Creator of the Universe, who governs
by providence and who ought to be worshiped.
2.  That the most acceptable service we render to Him is in
doing good to his other children.
3.   That the soul of man is immortal and will be treated with
justice in another life respecting its conduct in this.

Pretty simple, right?  And yet we are teaching our children,
instead, that they evolved from slime, that they cannot
control even their most base sexual impulses, and that the
creation, not the Creator, is to be reverenced and deified. 
Instead of teaching service, we are teaching "entitlement,"
causing the vast majority of Americans (both young and old)
to become dependent upon, controlled, and enslaved by
government. 

To remedy this debacle, we must remove the federal
government from its unconstitutional funding and control
of education.  If the federal government will not confine
itself to the Constitution, then each state must refuse
federal funding.  Demand both. 

We need to repeal the 14th Amendment, which federal courts
have used to rule that the limitations placed upon the federal
government by the Constitution now limit state and local
governments.  The federal courts have used the 14th
Amendment to outlaw teaching the principles essential to
Liberty.  The federal government is not supposed to be able
to tell us what we can teach in our local schools. That, my
friends, is tyranny!

We need to repeal the 16th Amendment.  The federal
government is not supposed to be able to tell our churches
what they can preach, teach or advocate.  That, my friends, is
tyranny.

In the meantime, every church needs to open a school designed
to rescue as  many neighborhood children as possible from the
public schools.  Its members need to volunteer to run the school. 
If the churches do not step in, they will have squandered the
religious freedom that God has granted them and missed the
opportunity to rescue America, the only stronghold of religious
freedom in the world. 

Let's Roll, Patriots!
