Have Americans become a people who no longer deserve their Constitution?
By R.W. Trewyn

“Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people.”

Only moral and religious people? Who said that about the Constitution?

Someone who would know: John Adams, America’s first vice president and second president, who served on the First Continental Congress and helped draft the Declaration of Independence.

Adams went on to say immediately thereafter, “It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” In other words, it’s “wholly inadequate to the government of” an immoral and godless people.

Sadly, in 2022 there’s no shortage of those in America.

A question that is sadly true.
At least for a large (and growing) segment of the population.

But this didn't happen in a vacuum.
It is the result of careful planning and execution.

See:
The Frankfurt School
Critical theory
Herbert Marcuse and his concept of "repressive tolerance"

And helped along with a generous serving of "sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll"...

Our disciplined Founders grasped the critical importance of spiritual sensibilities
in forming Man's character, which fostered the development of our nation/state.
Sadly, those values/virtues have evaporated as materialism engulfs our culture/society.
