“The choice before us is plain: Christ or chaos, conviction or compromise, discipline or disintegration. I am rather tired of hearing about our rights and privileges as American citizens. The time is come-it is now-when we ought to hear about the duties and responsibilities of our citizenship. America’s future depends upon her accepting and demonstrating God’s government.”
-- Peter Marshall, January 13, 1947, Chaplain of the U.S. Senate
"My brilliant son Elijah, who is five, asked his mother yesterday, 'What is duty?'
My brilliant wife gave him the perfect answer. After thinking for a moment she told him, 'Duty is doing what God expects of you.'
Don't you wish we had people in public office who understood such simple truth? Wouldn't it be great to have folks in leadership who understand and are committed to fulfilling the most basic responsibilities to God and their fellow men that are associated with their sacred oath of office?
Let us join together and act boldly to make it so, before it too late for our country, for Elijah and his contemporaries, and for their children. Please."

"Duty is ours. Results are God's."
-- James Madison
"No human law can abolish the natural and original right of marriage, nor in any way limit the chief and principal purpose of marriage ordained by God's authority from the beginning: "Increase and multiply." Hence we have the family, the "society" of a man's house -- a society very small, one must admit, but none the less a true society, and one older than any State. Consequently, it has rights and duties peculiar to itself which are quite independent of the State."
-- Leo XII Rerum Novarum, (12), MAY 15, 1891
