We are a proud nation and we welcome all people no matter of their faith or beliefs. BUT WE ARE A NATION FOUNDED UNDER GOD! Since you were elected to represent ALL of our citizens, you need to at least speak for the MAJORITY.

President Barack Obama said in Turkey:

"We do not consider ourselves a Christian nation

Or a Jewish nation or a Muslim nation.

We consider ourselves a nation of citizens

Who are bound by ideals and a set of values."

I found this very interesting...Do you know the preamble for your state?

American History Quotes About God and the Bible

Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD, The people He has chosen as His own inheritance. Psalm 33:12

Famous American History Quotes About God and the Bible

America has always been one nation under God. Unfortunately, some are trying to rewrite American history and our laws and contradict our Christian nation, removing God's blessing. Christians are the largest group in America (80%) and our nation's source of unity. Below are some of the thousands of quotes endorsing God in government by our founding fathers and others in American history. We hope these famous inspirational quotes on God and American government encourage you to know the truth of American history.

The truth is America has always believed: in God we trust. And today, we declare America is a Christian nation - One Nation under God. American children prayed and read the Bible in schools for hundreds of years from the colonies until recently, Congress appropriated money to buy Bibles for America and support Christian missionaries, the third verse of our national anthem says, "And this be our motto, 'In God is our trust'"

After seeing the faith in God and government endorsement of Christianity in America below, look at these two links:

Christmas True Meaning and Traditions




Christmas has had a long and varied history. It has been celebrated for centuries by different people, at different times, in different places, and in many different ways. Here you will find links to information about the different ways that the holiday we know as Christmas has been celebrated, or not celebrated, over the years.

An Ancient HolidaySome of our modern Christmas traditions have much older roots, going back to pagan European traditions.

SaturnaliaSaturnalia was a Roman celebration in honor of the god Saturn.

An Outlaw ChristmasThe Puritans didn't believe in the jovial Christmas holiday, so they banned it.

Christmas ReinventedAmericans embraced Christmas in the 19th Century, even inventing some of their own Christmas traditions.

A Christmas CarolCharles Dickens' classic tale reflected and influenced changing ideas about the nature of Christmas.

Enjoy Christmas with Santa Claus at the North pole, an award-winning Christmas web site. Send a letter to Santa Clause or a Christmas card to a friend.

"Yes, Virginia, There is a Santa Claus!

A famous letter from Virgina O'Hanlon to the editorial of The New York Sun, first printed in 1897.

We take pleasure in answering thus prominently the communication below, expressing at the same time our great gratification that its faithful author is numbered among the friends of The Sun:

Dear Editor---

I am 8 years old. Some of my little friends say there is no Santa Claus. Papa says, "If you see it in The Sun, it's so.

" Please tell me the truth, is there a Santa Claus?Virginia O'HanlonVirginia, your little friends are wrong. They have been affected by the skepticism of a skeptical age. They do not believe except they see. They think that nothing can be which is not comprehensible by their little minds. All minds, Virginia, whether they be men's or children's, are little. In this great universe of ours, man is a mere insect, an ant, in his intellect as compared with the boundless world about him, as measured by the intelligence capable of grasping the whole of truth and knowledge.

Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus. He exists as certainly as love and generosity and devotion exist, and you know that they abound and give to your life its highest beauty and joy. Alas! how dreary would be the world if there were no Santa Claus! It would be as dreary as if there were no Virginias. There would be no childlike faith then, no poetry, no romance to make tolerable this existence. We should have no enjoyment, except in sense and sight. The external light with which childhood fills the world would be extinguished.Not believe in Santa Claus! You might as well not believe in fairies. You might get your papa to hire men to watch in all the chimneys on Christmas eve to catch Santa Claus, but even if you did not see Santa Claus coming down, what would that prove? Nobody sees Santa Claus, but that is no sign that there is no Santa Claus. The most real things in the world are those that neither children nor men can see. Did you ever see fairies dancing on the lawn? Of course not, but that's no proof that they are not there. Nobody can conceive or imagine all the wonders there are unseen and unseeable in the world.

You tear apart the baby's rattle and see what makes the noise inside, but there is a veil covering the unseen world which not the strongest man, nor even the united strength of all the strongest men that ever lived could tear apart. Only faith, poetry, love, romance, can push aside that curtain and view and picture the supernal beauty and glory beyond. Is it all real? Ah, Virginia, in all this world there is nothing else real and abiding.No Santa Claus! Thank God! he lives and lives forever. A thousand years from now, Virginia, nay 10 times 10,000 years from now, he will continue to make glad the heart of childhood.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!!
