“America was not a nation at all, but a league of thirteen separate nations—all of which had already standing Christian governments. For example the Constitution of Massachusetts required the Governor to “declare himself to be of the Christian religion” and gave the government the power to levy money “for the institution of the public worship of God and for the support and maintenance of public Protestant teachers of piety, religion, and morality”—and the Federal Government would not impede upon the existing State-level Religious Laws and Institutions.
Schools used to be both public and Protestant and filled with peace, but without Protestantism, schools have become public and filled with violent protesters. It is true that public Protestant schools were a little harsh and a lot successful, but the public secular schools today are extremely soft and not successful at all. These harsh and hard religious schools produced very tender men, whereas the soft public schools seem to produce more hardened criminals.”

“The trend went from fathers teaching children to be independent to the academy teaching children to become dependent. As we can see, when God is not central, all peripheral pursuits are quickly elevated to new idolatrous heights. The religion of modern education can be called the gateway to socialism and the rest of the new “isms”. For there is no other pursuit in which parents abandon everything they have ever stood for, in order to have their child peruse it. When it comes to career, progressivism is a mixed up with the idea that children are liberated when they follow their professors and held back when they follow their fathers.”

“Nobody starts out as a conservative. Everyone starts out as a progressive liberal. If a little child burns himself on the stove, it wasn’t because he was conservative and learned, it was because he was wild and far too liberal. Conservatism is spawned by affliction—it is the philosophy that is learned the hard way. Whereas liberalism is the philosophy that always comes before conservatism. Liberalism produces conservatives in almost every area of the world, where no conservatives are there to check it. Anywhere liberalism has been allowed to run its wild course, you will see people running the opposite direction into conservatism, whether it be from a burning stove or from a burning communist regime.”

“Liberation happens when what a man ought to do, is what a man wants to do.”

“The LORD through Moses, in taking the nation of Israel out of another nation, allowed the natural and familial ways of how a political state would naturally arise, while overpassing the illicit shortcomings that men have always defaulted to. They have kept the structural nature of the disbursed and separate states; the families, clans, tribes, and which compose the nation at large; but he had done away with the monarchical aspects that have always arisen. He had kept what spontaneously emerges from genuine human action, and surpasses that which emerges from illicit action. He had retained things born of natural cooperation and avoided things born of worry, concern, and issue. He had naturally given birth to Isaac while avoiding the unnatural birth of Ishmael. In short he had retained decentralized and diverse states, while avoiding any foreign centralized power; and this was the difference between Israel and the other nations; they were a nation governed and sustained by God alone.”
