“Being from the military, everything I did centered around religion. It's been around me forever. There has to be a core to America, a fabric that has made our country great. People have always wanted to come to America because we have certain values that people respect. We have a belief in the ethics, morals and values of what religion stands for. If you take it out, that would have a major impact on our country, leading to chaos in society,”
Bob Lewis
“When ever a person talks loudly against religion, always suspect that it is not their reason, but their passions, which have got the better of their beliefs.

Laurence Sterne

“GOD says there is cake on the counter. I know I didn't go to the store and I didn't see anyone leave the house....but if GOD says it's there, then it's there. Perhaps not in this "TIME" or the "time" I want it to be there...but I know it's there in spirit and it will be there in "time". ~ That's Faith ~ :) in a nutshell...”

“To talk about God as a Creator is not religion. Religion is man's attempt to reach God. This is simply looking at the facts of the world around us. You can't help but look at creation. It's all too phenomenal. You'd have to repress something to think this is all about evolution.”
Marvin Olasky

“Abba Ammonas was asked, 'What is the "narrow and hard way?" (Mt. 7.14) He replied, 'The "narrow and hard way" is this, to control your thoughts, and to strip yourself of your own will, for the sake of God. This is also the meaning of the sentence, "Lo, we have left everything and followed you." (Mt. 19.27)”
