The United States of America have exhibited, perhaps, the
first example of governments erected on the simple principles
of nature; and if men are now sufficiently enlightened to
disabuse themselves of artifice, imposture, hypocrisy, and
superstition, they will consider this event as an era in
their history. Although the detail of the formation of the
American governments is at present little known or regarded
either in Europe or in America, it may hereafter become an
object of curiosity. It will never be pretended that any
persons employed in that service had interviews with the
gods, or were in any degree under the influence of Heaven,
more than those at work upon ships or houses, or laboring
in merchandise or agriculture; it will forever be
acknowledged that these governments were contrived merely
by the use of reason and the senses....
-- John Adams, "A Defence of the Constitutions of Government
of the United States of America" [1787-1788];

DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER
==========
CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list. Proselytizing propagandic
screeds are unwelcomed. Substance�not soap-boxing�please! These are
sordid matters and 'conspiracy theory'�with its many half-truths, mis-
directions and outright frauds�is used politically by different groups with
major and minor effects spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought.
That being said, CTRLgives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and
always suggests to readers; be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no
credence to Holocaust denial and nazi's need not apply.
Let us please be civil and as always, Caveat Lector.
