20131121                    Government                    We Are Right (WAR)

We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Avarice, ambition, revenge or gallantry would break the strongest cords of our Constitution as a whale goes through a net. Our Constitution is designed only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate for any other.                                         attributed to John Adams, 2nd President, no source document so no quotes, from The Quotations Page
