President Barack Obama and his administration deliberately distort and often try to make the public believe that the United States is a democracy. Obama also said, “We are not a Christian nation.” Both are deceivingly untrue.
Federalist James Madison once said, “Democracy is the most vile form of government. …Democracies have ever been spectacles of turbulence and contention; have ever been found incompatible with personal security or the rights of property and have been violent in their deaths.”
Alexander Hamilton said, “Real liberty is never found in despotism or in the extremes of democracy.”
Democracy’s source of law is popular feeling. A correct republic’s source for law is the Bible — the foundation of the American republic — from which we are bound by the order of that law, which cannot be changed on a whim. Democracy, by mob rule, can change the current of the nation by popular feelings.
Belief in the Christian faith cannot be considered a threat to the life of a nation; rather, it is necessary for its survival.
Abraham Lincoln is quoted as saying, “Our fathers established these great self-evident truths that posterity might look again to the Declaration of Independence, and take courage to renew the battle which their fathers began, so that truth and Christian virtues might not be extinguished from the land.”
