In celebration of our country's birthday, I think Abraham Lincoln was right. The United States of America is mankind's "last best hope." But make no mistake, despite the best attempts of modern revisionists - the early leaders that made this country great were not secular humanists but Christians. The evidence is overwhelming, consider the following private prayer of George Washington. May God be pleased to once again give our country such leadership.
"O most glorious God, in Jesus Christ my merciful and loving Father, I acknowledge and confess my guilt, in the weak and imperfect performance of the duties of this day. I have called on Thee for pardon and forgiveness of sins. ... Let me live according to those holy rules which Thou hast this day prescribed in his holy word; make me to know what is acceptable in Thy sight, and therein to delight, open my eyes of understanding, and help me to thoroughly examine myself concerning my knowledge, faith and repentance, increase my faith, and direct me to thy true object, Jesus Christ the Way, the Truth, and the Life. Bless O Lord, all the people of this land, from the highest to the lowest, particularly those whom Thou has appointed to rule over us in church and state. Continue thy goodness to me this night. These weak petitions, I humbly implore Thee to hear, accept, and answer for the sake of Thy Dear Son, Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen." - President George Washington
