On July 4, 1821, President Adams said, "The highest glory of the American Revolution was this:  "It connected in one indissoluble bond the principles of civil government with the principles of Christianity."  Calvin Coolidge, our 30th President of the United States, reaffirmed this truth when he wrote, " The foundations of our society and our government rest so much on the teachings of the Bible that it would be difficult to support them if faith in these teachings would cease to be practically universal across our country."

"When there is lack of honor in government, the morals of the whole people are poisoned.  There is no such thing as a no-man's land between honesty and dishonesty.  Our strength lies in spiritual concepts.  It lies in public sensitiveness to evil.  Our greatest danger is not from invasion by foreign armies.  Our dangers are that we may commit suicide from within by complacence with evil, or by public tolerance of scandalous behavior."
