Revisionists and Declaration of Independence Errors

Tuesday December 20th, 2005. This is show # 252.

BEST QUOTE OF THE SHOW:

If you knew the Bible and you knew history, you would know that people are not basically good. And so when [our founding fathers] came out of the convention in Philadelphia and a woman said, "What form of government have you given us sir?" "A republic, maam, if you can keep it." This form of government will only work if the people are righteous, if the people are self-governed regarding morality.

Well, that should have been a big neon sign back before they had neon signs saying, "Warning! Warning! Warning! This will not work because the people are not basically good, they're basically sinful."
