A Post of Mine to Check …
OK, well it is not exactly a post. Check out my blog Herculean Reflections: http://herkyreflects.blogspot.com/2010/10/revival-is-coming-and-so-is-opposition.html
What think ye now?
At long last, The Foundation Forum has moved to its own domain, and my old blog Meet the Founding Fathers has moved with it. (Thank you, Mrs. M!) It should not be too long before I get blogging again; there is still so much to write about, and so many post series I have to [...]
Good News From Oklahoma
I periodically get emails from David Barton’s group Wallbuilders, and this morning I was pleasantly surprised to find such an email in my inbox. It concerns a state representative from Oklahoma named Sarah Kern. Probably never heard of her on the “fair-and-balanced” Fox News Channel.

Happy Thanksgiving!
Wishing you all a Happy Thanksgiving! Adblock (HT: New York Traveler) I wish our American culture placed more emphasis on this celebration, than on Halloween, or even Christmas (if we want to celebrate the birthday of Christ, why don’t we do it on the day He was born — which was in the early spring [...]

After reviewing the definition of a Christian nation (and which definition applies in our case), and the biblical cause of our American Revolution, we shall now examine the [...]

Thoughts on Theocracy and America
In the debate surrounding the issue of America as a Christian nation, those opposing the Christian nation thesis, or those who desire a separation of the influence of Christians over the institutes of the state, have accused the “anti-separationists” (those who oppose the contemporary view of “separation of church and state” and advocate that the [...]
“Be It Resolved …”
… that a new flag be created for the State of New York, viz.: “The golden dollar signs indicate the sanctity and value of the Almighty Dollar (a term coined by New-Yorker Washington Irving), which the almighty state legislature hath, by enactment hereof, deified. The Latin motto beneath the dollar signs, which reads “Vectigalis Excelsior” [...]
