Beware of Islam

If Islam continues to grow at its present rate, critical mass will be achieve by 2020 and the eventual Muslim transformation of America will become a statistical possibility. This is not to say that sharia will be the law of the land, but it is to affirm that the religion of the prophet will be a force that cannot be denied by our elected officials. Demands will be met; concessions granted.

Mr. Williams was right on target. Just look at how Islam has been taking over the USA—and Europe!  

Laws Are Discovered, Not Developed

By securing liberty, the Constitution assumes that laws are discovered, not developed; found, not created. Most of the founders believed this is so because everyone can observe God’s revelation in nature if they have not suppressed their ability to observe it by other commitments. On this basis, it is possible to establish a body of laws to remove barriers to economic arrangements, create a framework for resolving disputes, establish accountability that restrains evil, and provide a better environment in which everyone is allowed to flourish if they choose to do so.

Liberty Lies in the Hearts of Men and Women

I often wonder whether we do not rest our hopes too much upon constitutions, upon laws and upon courts. These are false hopes; believe me, these are false hopes. Liberty lies in the hearts of men and women; when it dies there, no constitution, not law, no court can even do much to help it. While it lies there it needs no constitution, no law, no court to save it.
