Just a few happy things...

Visions of Misletoe still in my head...
flowers abloom in pink & redlinens on a freshly made bed...
appetites for Christmas not yet fed...
A Happy Twefth Night to you and it's all said.

The Founders on Religion...

My brother gave me the marvelous book for Christmas. While the founders of the United States wanted a there to be a separation of church and state, they framed this goverment for a religious and moral people. This is a subject that interests me and I have written about before here.

"Our constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other." John Adams

"No Man has a more perfect Reliance on the alwise, and powerful dispensations of the Supreme Being that I have nor think his aid more necessary." George Washington

"And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes, and our sacred Honor." Thomas Jefferson

This is a book to buy for your library.
