We have no Government armed with Power capable of contending with human Passions unbridled by morality and Religion. Avarice, Ambition, Revenge or Galantry, would break the strongest Cords of our Constitution as a Whale goes through a Net. Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious People. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other

We have stepped way over that line.
We are no longer the kind of "people" that Adams described in his letter.

Sadly, I have to concur.

A quote from the above article:

"Pence told the crowd that the attack was the worst mass shooting at a church in American history and called the gunman “deranged.”"

Uh, no. Sorry, but the worst mass shooting at a church took place in another Texas town - Waco. And there were "multiple shooters" then, too...

Oh, don’t you believe they were a legitimate church?
