"Nothing is more certain than that a general profligacy and corruption of manners make a people ripe for destruction. A good form of government may hold the rotten materials together for some time, but beyond a certain pitch, even the best constitution will be ineffectual, and slavery must ensue."
—John Witherspoon, The Dominion of Providence Over the Passions of Men, 1776

And Samuel Adams agreed with this statement by the Preacher John Witherspoon.
The Founders agreed, a profligate, Godless people will not be able to sustain a Constitutional Republic.
Back to God and the Bible.
