"Religion and morality are the indispensable supports of political prosperity. Let us with caution indulge the supposition that morality can be maintained without religion. Reason and experience both forbid us to expect that national morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principle.

Morality is a necessary spring of popular government. Who, that is a sincere friend to it, can look with indifference upon attempts to shake the foundation of the fabric?"

I'm not religious

 Why do people say this as if admitting there is a God were some kind of plague or

 

foolishness? We willingly admit that we are hungry for breakfast, lunch or dinner.  What then is so terrible about admitting that we have a hungering in our soul?  How did we

ever reach the point where good is bad and bad is good?  The whole concept of goody-

two-shoes as being somehow a bad thing?  It has to be an idea started by the devil and

turned out on a super efficient assembly line.  And now massively distributed, he

daily grins from one devilish ear to the other as a host of humans use God as a curse

rather than as a prayer.

The world if full of people willing to put you down.   Take it to heart, the Lord

stands ready to lift you up.  To help you rise up above the mental mildew of lesser

thoughts and shriveled deeds.  Therefore, build a king-sized belief system.  Believe that

even if you may have trouble moving the proverbial mountain, with God's help you can

be a first class shaper of molehills.  And, yes, one day you may well move that mountain

 in a glorious whoopee time.

The moral behind all of this?  Believe in yourself.  Believe in yourself.  Believe in

yourself.  By the brace and grace of God, BELIEVE IN YOURSELF!
