    We wont necessarily prosper, just look at Job, but when the America has reached its peak and begins the quick plummet to destruction along with the rest of the world at least there could have been a greater number saved here if we had held onto the principles of the Bible, the principles of an All-Powerful God.

    If we all abide by Biblical principles of our own free will, KEEPING CHURCH AND STATE SEPARATE, our country could prosper. Or fail. But probably prosper. If we all practice different faiths (or no faith at all in some cases), KEEPING CHURCH AND STATE SEPARATE, our country could prosper or fail, probably prosper. If we all live out the rest of our lives as atheists, KEEPING THE PROVISION FOR SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE, our nation could prosper or fail. And again, it would probably prosper. But if the wall of separation between the church and state comes crashing down, America will definitely fail, because then everything it stands for will be lost.

    Kinda sorta almost accurate. The occupying statist theocracy now infesting this land has breeched the barrier between church and state. Those Biblical principles that extended from nature's law have all but been extinguished with carnal logic, reasoning and philosophies. Those that forget history are doomed to experience ANTI-prosperity.

    My fear has always been the invasion of 'beliefs' other than christian and we are paying a high price for this intervention and lack of our conscientous action to 'pray unceasingly', as did George and the other founding fathers. Congress has never met the expectations and beliefs and action as it should have...

    We hold this truth to be self evident ! ! !

    National debt: 34 trillion.
    Gross Domestic Product: 28 trillion.  We might look to other sources, just a suggestion.

    Sillik, do you have any suggestions as concerning "other sources?" The current debt system is a close kin to theocratic socialism;  diametrically opposed to biblical principles and nature's law fiscal applications.
