CHAPLAIN’S CORNER January 2011

In recent years, many leftists ignore the fact that our nation was founded on Christian-Judeo principles. How can they dismiss what our founding Fathers have written and is part of our recorded history?

Here are just a couple of examples:
“Principally and first of all, I give and recommend my soul into the hands of God that gave it: and my body I recommend to the earth... nothing doubting but at the general resurrection I shall receive the same again by the mercy and power of God.”
John Hancock, signer of the Declaration of Independence

Patrick Henry, while Governor of Virginia

First time ever

◼ GOP-Controlled House Kicks Off New Session by Reading Constitution Aloud
Though it has been inserted as text into the Congressional Record before, the supreme law of the land has never been read aloud before in the body known as "the People's House."
The man responsible for the exercise, Rep. Bob Goodlatte, R-Va., says it's more than just a simple civics lesson.
"This is a very symbolic showing to the American people," said Goodlatte, "and it's a powerful message to members of Congress. We are a nation of laws, not of men."

Glenn Beck’s big spotlight on Soros is troubling because of the powerful Washington political insiders that surround Soros and his ventures.
