How did America, the land of the free, reach the crisis point we now face today? The Father of Our Country would have an answer for us: “boundless ambition” and “corrupted morals.”

Child mutilation, baby murder, no consequences for violent crime, election fraud, money laundering, mainstream sexual perversion—this describes not some ancient tyranny or Communist banana republic but our current state in America, once a beacon of Judeo-Christian values and liberty. The tide can be reversed but only if we are honest about the root causes of this crisis and willing to heed George Washington's warning.

As Washington’s fellow founder, John Adams, noted, “Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” As we see our most sacred constitutional rights under attack from the very leaders who are supposed to protect them, we can see painfully and clearly how right Adams was.
Washington, in the undelivered address, reflected, “The blessed Religion revealed in the word of God will remain an eternal and awful monument to prove that the best Institutions may be abused by human depravity; and that they may even, in some instances be made subservient to the vilest of purposes.”

Now, even men and women who consider themselves Christians and/or conservatives justify the brutal murder of unborn babies. Donald Trump, while talking about his gratitude to God for miraculously protecting him from a deadly shooting, is compromising more than ever on abortion (even though most Americans believe in restricting abortion), and the main result is Trump’s own base taking offense.

Can we expect God to bless us when we have a multitude of excuses, in defiance of the natural and moral laws and ample scientific evidence—and in spite of abortion never being necessary to save a mother—as to why we should crush babies’ skulls and rip off their limbs? The Founding Fathers were pro-life, and they would have replied, “No.”
