Why have we allowed the Leftists to convince us that it was the consensus of the Founders of America that there should be a wall of separation from church and state? Nothing could be further from the Truth. The Truth is that the Founders identified Five Basic Tenets that they believed were so important in providing ‘good government and the happiness of mankind’ that they wanted them taught in the public schools along with morality and knowledge.
Thomas Jefferson’s Prayer, March 4, 1805
Thomas Jefferson gave several prayers. This one was given at the end of his Second Inaugural Address.
"I shall need, too, the favor of that Being in whose hands we are, who led our forefathers, as Israel of old, from their native land, and planted them in a country flowing with all the necessaries and comforts of life; who has covered our infancy with his providence, and our riper years with his wisdom and power; and to whose goodness I ask you to join with me in supplications, that he will so enlighten the minds of your servants, guide their councils, and prosper their measures, that whatsoever they do, shall result in your good, and shall secure to you the peace, friendship, and approbation of all nations."
