Do not plod along like cattle

I am respectfully submitting an excerpt from a book called “Freedom Tide” written by Chad Connelly:

Anyone making statements that our Founding Fathers were not predominantly Christian, or that they did not base our form of governnment on God’s eternal laws, or that they intended the form of “separation of church and state” that we have today, is sadly mistaken. A small amount of homework conclusively reveals otherwise. Just a few truths for your study: The University of Houston conducted a study in which 15,000 writings of the founders were assembled. The fathers quoted the Bible four times more than any other source. In reference to the phrase “separation of church and state,” one can easily discover that, not only were these words taken out of context, but Thomas Jefferson, who is credited with that statement, was not even present at the session in which the First Amendment was discussed and written. In court proceedings, hearsay is not allowed as admissible evidence. Surely, you would have to admit that statements made by someone not present at the discussion would be classified as hearsay. Check it out of yourself. Start with http://www.WallBuilders.com or http://www.FreedomTide.com and go from there. Pick up any pre-revision history book. I am sorry that our current curriculum designed by revisionists no longer teaches the truth, but that does not mean that we as Americans have to plod along like cattle, just following some ill-advised lead. A friend of mine says “It is okay to be honestly mistaken, but once one has been presented with the truth, that person either ceases to be mistaken or ceases to be honest.”
