Peace at any cost is a prelude to war!
Loss of Morality Portends Loss of Freedom
By Chuck Baldwin
April 28, 2000
Can an immoral person be regarded as a true patriot? The framers of this
republic didn’t think so. The Father of the American Revolution Sam Adams,
said, "He who is void of virtuous attachments in private life is, or very
soon will be, void of all regard for his country. There is seldom an
instance of a man guilty of betraying his country, who had not before lost
the feeling of moral obligations in his private connections…."
Our form of government is totally dependent upon "each and every one of us
to control ourselves according to the Ten Commandments of God," James
Madison said. John Adams agreed. He said, "Our Constitution was made only
for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government
of any other."
William Penn warned, "If men will not be governed by God, they will be
ruled by tyrants." Patrick Henry said virtually the same thing. He
declared, "It is when people forget God that tyrants forge their chains."
Freedom-loving people must by nature be God-fearing people.
Current events suggest that America has forgotten this fundamental truth.
Intoxicated with hedonism, we not only tolerate Clinton’s Mafia-style
brutality; we applaud it. Americans applauded when those people at Mr.
Carmel burned. They cheered when federal agents seized little Elian
Gonzalez at gunpoint. It doesn’t bother us that Clinton’s merciless mad
dogs victimize innocent women. Even the national press looks the other way
when one of its own is pummeled by Clinton’s thuggery.
I used to marvel at how the German people could support a man like Adolf
Hitler. When Hitler came to power, Germany was a republic. Furthermore,
they had a rich Christian history. The Germans were cultured, law-abiding
people. How they could follow a man like Hitler was a mystery to me – until
now.
Are we not like Germany of old when we applaud as federal Storm Troopers
kick down our fellow citizen’s doors during the night to carry out the
unlawful orders of a ruthless ruler? Do we really think that it can only
happen to our neighbors, and not to us?
America is no longer ruled by the U.S. Constitution. We are ruled by brute
force. Clinton has effectively neutered congress and the courts. He is an
authority unto himself. He is accountable to no one. What is worse is that
the vast majority of the American people seem to find this palatable.
Some have suggested that Bill Clinton will never leave office. They
propound that he will create a national crisis and then declare himself to
be the only one who is capable of solving the problem. They believe he will
suspend elections and seize authoritarian control.
For the sake of discussion, who among us would resist such a tyrannical
move? Would his fellow Democrats? As for the Republicans, about all we
could expect from them is that they would conduct hearings on the matter.
Would our career-craving military brass stand in his way? Would the media
protest? They already serve as Clinton’s Propaganda Department.
It appears to me that the same majority of Americans who have supported
every corrupt and debauched action taken by this corrupt and debauched man
would continue to support him no matter what he did. We have traded our
morals for a burgeoning stock market, and we have traded our faith in God
for a boy who would be king.
