Editor, Gazette-Journal:

I believe the people of this country have forgotten or do not have any idea why and how this United States became a great nation. This has been a Christian nation; this is why we became a great nation, because we put our faith and trusted in God.

The United States has been in a steady decline since our government/Supreme Court decided to take God out of our government, schools and remove his name and Bible verse from our public buildings because the name of God and the Bible offended the Muslims, other religions, LGBTs and atheists. It’s time to put God first and we will see a change that will bring this country back to a peaceful, compassionate and loving nation. 

Like most of the people, I have been watching the bid for the presidency. It has brought up a lot of issues that I been thinking about since the election of Obama. The morality of this nation is just about non-existent. Most movies and television shows are unfit to watch.

The Democratic Party lawmakers and the people who voted to put these politicians in office are just as guilty of murdering the unborn babies and just as guilty as the mother who had the abortion and those who participated during the abortion. Just because the Supreme Court said it was OK, does not mean in God’s eyes that you are not guilty. The churches that proclaim to be evangelical Christians and vote to support the Democratic Party are just as guilty of murder as the mother who has the abortion. Democrats, Republicans, independents and those of other political orientations who claim to be Christian will pay a greater price for their part for allowing this to take place. God will surely judge them more harshly in the end time.
