BIBLE BIRTHED AMERICA. KORAN KILLED IRAQ

J. Grant Swank, Jr.

America was birthed in the biblical morality. Atheists can contest that till they are blue in the face. It doesn’t matter. The record is there for those into reality-history.

With the Bible the center of the Early Colonies — in their schools, churches, town
meetings and homes — that ethic was learned and lived by. Not all learned and lived by. Naturally. This is a spiritually flawed world. Nevertheless, the Bible was there in the center of life — and thinking, philosophizing.

Children learned the Golden Rule. They were taught the story of the Good Samaritan. They learned of "Jesus loves me, this I know, for the Bible tells me so." They were instructed that lying, cheating, stealing, murder and sexual misconduct were wrong — sinful.

The biblical ethic is at the base of our judicial system. It has formed our community ways of life. It has fostered hospitals, clinics, orphanages, inner city missions, welfare agencies, civic organizations, care for the elderly, and educational systems.

Many of our colleges were begun as learning schools to train Christian clergy.
From our biblically moored early towns and villages, missionaries went to other parts of the globe. There they established what they had put in place in America — hospitals, schools, churches, clinics, and agricultural systems.

Much of our biblically formed culture is taken for granted by religious and irreligious. It has become so much a part of our society that it is just "there."

However, take that biblical base away and put in its place a maiming and killing "ethic" and you have Iraq — and every other Muslim nation on the planet.

It is that crucial differential that is destroying Iraq. Iraq is imploding. It is merely a matter of time until multinational forces will leave and the country will implode upon its own blood.
