"They
[founding fathers] proclaimed to all the world the revolutionary doctrine of the
divine rights of the common man. That doctrine has ever since been the heart of
American faith ... Recognition of the Supreme Being is the first, most basic,
expression of Americanism. Without God, there could be no American form of government,
nor American way of life."[25]
