Recapturing Our Heritage - God’s Role In America
This is a Powerpoint presentation that takes on the “Separation of Church and State” advocates directly. The presentation showcases our distinct religious heritage from Columbus on down through the ratification of our Constitution using the actual writings of the Founders as the foundation of what they established for our liberty.
This resource is being made available from Restoring Our Heritage and is the perfect Home Schooling tool in educating our youth about our true history and heritage that is being forcefully removed from our society.
Our future depends on a correct understanding of our true history and the heritage our Founders established for us to follow if this republic was to endure. Sadly, most of this information is no longer taught in our schools and an entire generation is ignorant of the role God played in this nation’s establishment.

By portraying either the George Washingtons or Patrick Henry’s, the thrust of our ministry is to educate Americans about the true Christian heritage of our nation, and to expose the lie of “separation of church and state.”

Benjamin Franklin-
“The way to see by faith is to shut the eye of reason. Lighthouses are more helpful than churches.”
Thomas Jefferson-
“Religions are all alike, founded upon fables and mythologies.”
John Adams-
“This would be the best of all possible worlds if there were no religion in it.”
James “Father of the Constitution” Madison-
“Religious bondage shackles and debilitates the mind, and unfits it for every noble purpose.”
George Washington-
“There is nothing which can better deserve our patronage than the promotion of science and literature. Knowledge is in every country the surest basis of public happiness.”
Abraham Lincoln-
“The Bible is not my Book and Christianity is not my religion. I could never give assent to the long complicated statements of Christian dogma.”
…tough to misinterpret that…

John Adams-
“The United States of America have exhibited, perhaps, the first example of governments erected on the simple principles of nature; and if men are now sufficiently enlightened to disabuse themselves of artifice, imposture, hypocrisy, and superstition, they will consider this event as an era in their history. Although the detail of the formation of the American governments is at present little known or regarded either in Europe or in America, it may hereafter become an object of curiosity. It will never be pretended that any persons employed in that service had interviews with the gods, or were in any degree under the influence of Heaven, more than those at work upon ships or houses, or laboring in merchandise or agriculture; it will forever be acknowledged that these governments were contrived merely by the use of reason and the senses. . . Thirteen governments [of the original states] thus founded on the natural authority of the people alone, without a pretence of miracle or mystery, and which are destined to spread over the northern part of that whole quarter of the globe, are a great point gained in favor of the rights of mankind.”
James Madison-
“And I have no doubt that every new example will succeed, as every past one has done, in showing that religion & Government will both exist in greater purity, the less they are mixed together.”
Benjamin Franklin-
“I cannot conceive otherwise than that He, the Infinite Father, expects or requires no worship or praise from us, but that He is even infinitely above it.”

Benjamin Franklin-
“I have found Christian dogma unintelligible. Early in life I absented myself from Christian assemblies.”

Thomas Jefferson-
“You say you are a Calvinist. I am not. I am of a sect by myself, as far as I know.”
Thomas Paine-
“Of all the tyrannies that afflict mankind, tyranny of religion is the worst.”

I laugh at your feeble efforts to play bingo with quotes from the Founder’s outside of the context in which they were spoken in light of how they viewed Popery and the history of the church’s dominance over the governing affairs of men in Europe.
Given the quotes you cut and pasted, with that which this site is dedicated, either the Founder’s were contradictory and could not make up their minds about God and Religion, or as is usual - you have no understanding of why the quotes you provided were written.
The fruits of this country’s history are self-evident, and the greater the removal of religion and faith in society, the more vicious and criminal the culture becomes, and more despotic the government grows.
