HOW DID GOD'S INFLUENCE GET TO BE SUCH A BAD THING?

(These One A Days are added to each day)

In 1980, the Supreme Court in Kentucky denied the right to display the Ten Commandments in schools. And it gave the following reason why, “If the posted copies of the Ten Commandments are to have any effect at all, it will be to induce the school children to read, meditate upon, perhaps even to venerate and obey, the Commandments.”

Children meditating and considering the possibility of having the Ten Commandments influence their lives. What a terrible threat to liberty. But to the humanist it is a threat, because humanism argues there is no such thing as right and wrong. It abhors the idea of absolutes. It supports moral anarchy. If it feels good then it must be okay, its followers argue.

For the greater part of our history, humanism didn’t stand a chance to survive. We were a nation that believed God was the source of what was right and what was wrong. Unfortunately, we are now becoming not one nation under God, but a nation without God.

Unfortunately, in the latter part of the 20th century and now into the 21st, more and more leaders readily accepted, and accept, the premise not just of the separation of “church and state” but the separation of “God and state.”
To those who support this premise of disaster, I remind that The Declaration of Independence contains five references to God:

God as supreme Lawmaker.
God as Creator for all men.
God as the Source of all rights.
God as the world’s supreme Judge.
God as our Protector on whom we can rely.
