I was caught by a phrase that may respond to the battle between God and the radical left that works to remove God from America. God compelled our political forefathers to seek independence and build the strongest, most enduring democracy on earth.
When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
