As you walk up the steps to the building which houses the U.S. Supreme Court you can see near the top of the building a row of the world's law givers and each one is facing one in the middle who is facing forward with a full frontal view ... it is Moses and he is holding the Ten Commandments!

James Madison, the fourth President (known as "The Father of our Constitution") made the following statement:

Let's put it around the world and let the world see and remember what this great country was built on.

I was asked to send this on, or delete the eMail if I didn't. Now, it is your turn!

It is said that 86% of Americans believe in God. Therefore, it is very hard to understand why there is such a mess about having the Ten Commandments on display or "In God We Trust" on our money and having God in the Pledge of Allegiance.

If you agree, pass this on.
