Offensive Quotes about Government
Government must always be the peoples servant, not their master. In its power to tax the people and regulate the economy, it has overstepped its boundaries.
George W. Bush
Renewing America's Purpose
2000
"A democracy is only a good form of government as long as it is based on Scriptural principles, and as long as a majority of its people are committed to those principles. The idea of total religious freedom is an illusion which has a relatively short duration. Every religion is, by its very nature, totally intolerant of every other religion."
Bill Gothard
Surveys show that Americans are the most religious people of any advanced nation. Countries such as Germany and Sweden have become so secularized that the churches survive only with government subsidies. Even in many Catholic countries, a majority of people indicate they have no great faith in God. America is different. Here, most believe a higher authority rules their lives, they attend church, and they raise their children in religious households. Man is a spiritual being. If his faith in God is destroyed, the void will be filled with something else. Throughout history that substitute for faith has been a belief in a man-made god called the state. The separation of church and state in our Constitution is not there to protect Americans from religion. It is there to protect Americans from the government.
Rush Limbaugh

"We hear the familiar cry that morals can't be legislated. This may be true, but behavior can be regulated. The law may not be able to make a man love me, but it can keep him from lynching me." - Martin Luther King, Jr.
"Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other." - John Adams, October 11, 1798
