Four U.S. Supreme Court Cases Describing America as a “Christian Nation” (1844-1931) Excerpt: There is an official foundation of American law and civil government; a Canon if you will which must include consideration of at least four separate decisions of the U.S. supreme Court which assert that the United States is in law, fact and history and should thus properly be termed officially a “Christian Nation”…

Suppression of the “Official and Permanent History of American Law and Civil Government” (1920-2007) Excerpt: Challenges to Christians and Conservatives today-even the most complex issues-can be best understood by remembering that all battles are ultimately over America’s historic foundations. Failing to remember history leads to loss of national identity and purpose.

Veterans Day observance in Kentucky public schools.  Download the text – KRS 158.075

Kentucky law requires all public schools to include as part of their curriculum the observance of Veterans Day. KRS 158.075 mandates that one entire class period be set aside to teach the meaning of Veterans Day to school assemblies, using a teacher working in close conjunction with a veteran. This requirement must be fulfilled either on Veterans Day if the school schedule permits, or during one of the five school days preceding Veterans Day. Every school is encouraged to seek advice and assistance from the Kentucky Department of Veterans Affairs.

PERK Committee: Education about the Role of Religion in America’s History and Culture   The Kentucky Legislature recommended the study of the founding era of American history based on primary source documents, eliminating the censorship and revisionism that has produced a generation of ignorance.  During 1998-99, a non-partisan Governor’s Blue Ribbon Committee met to consider enforcing KRS 158.195 and learned that Government schools had abandoned the teaching of American history in the 1960’s, and thus the duty to teach the truth falls to individual statesmen, pastors, and parents.  In 2000 during the Ten Commandments debate, the General Assembly passed Senate Joint Resolution 57.

Supreme Court Judges Should Read America’s Founding Documents Excerpt: The “domestic enemies” of America have taken one more piece of ground in the fight for our historic “Christian nation” which the supreme Court so declared four times from 1844 to 1931. The survival of our American way of life depends on every American to arm himself with the truth of our history as one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.

Revising and Censoring American History Excerpt: There are domestic enemies not unhappy that America does not know what it was yesterday, or where it came from, or what it has been about… Significant ground is already lost among the generation you are called upon to lead… [A]cquaint yourself and acquaint those you lead with the U.S. Constitution… Pass the word! The survival of our American way of life, liberty and pursuit of happiness depend upon it.

American History Under Fire! Excerpt: America’s future is up to you. What happens next is up to you. Will liberty-loving Americans take the initiative and carry the day, the battle, the war or will America’s “domestic enemies” continue to destroy our national identity?

Christian America and the Treaty of Tripoli, 1797 Excerpt: The Muslim “Barbary Powers” (Tunis, Morocco, Algiers, Tripoli, and Turkey) declared war against what they claimed to be the “Christian” nations, England, France, Spain, Denmark, and the United States. They attacked American merchant ships, enslaved sailors, and placed a bounty on the heads of “Christians.” Article 11 of the 1797 Treaty, was an affirmation that the United States would not act in hostilities against a country because it was “Muslim,” in spite of the fact that these countries had declared war on countries that claimed “Christianity.”

An Analysis of Ceremonial Deism as a Possible New Edict for Destroying America’s History Excerpt: The first time the Ten Commandments were before the supreme Court Stone v. Graham was decided in 1980. The Ten Commandments are again before the U.S. supreme Court…and just as before, the cases have the potential for an avalanche of new restrictions upon acknowledging God in public life.

Can the supreme Court Change God’s Name? Excerpt: The Pledge of Allegiance case…is a monumental landmark “non-decision,” which is being applied with the same force as the Constitution to new cases, and new principles foreign to our entire history. Its novel interpretations of law are even now directing the outcome of the supreme Court’s decision regarding our rights to display the Ten Commandments.

Reece Investigation of Tax-Exempt Foundations

Includes: Everson vs. Board of Education, McCollum vs. Board of Education, Torcaso vs. Watkins, Engel vs. Vitale, Abington vs. Schempp, Lemon vs. Kurtzman, Stone vs. Graham

The Underlying Philosophy of Public Education

Excerpt: The departure of schooling as an academic accomplishment to its current state as behavioral conditioning is traced to the German influence of Wilhelm Wundt…  Wundt founded experimental psychology, and proposed that the human psyche could be measured, quantified, and scientifically demonstrated. 

The Pledge of Allegiance & The Declaration of Independence Unconstitutional? – American Identity & Purpose Under Fire Via Censorship of Nation’s History

Excerpt: There are those today not unhappy that America does not know what it was yesterday, or where it came from, or what it has been about, as President Wilson said. Significant ground is already lost among the current generation. However, in the patriotic swell since September 11, 2001 and the “War on Terrorism,” there is opportunity to teach and recall the nation’s identity and purpose as laid down by America’s founders, but apathy and ignorance will kill liberty.   

Liberty Day

The U.S. Congress designated March 16 as Liberty Day, in recognition of the birthday of James Madison, fourth president of the United States, to celebrate the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution.
