The secret (and weakness) of America

Not until I went into the churches of America and heard her pulpits flame with righteousness did I understand the secret and genius of her power. America is great because she is good, and if America ever ceases to be good, America will cease to be great. -- Alexis de Tocqueville, quoted in "In the Words of Ronald Reagan", by Michael Reagan

[If this has a familiar ring to some of you, it may be because it restates what King Mosiah in the Book of Mormon said two millenia ago. (See Mosiah 29: 26-27) -- KJK ]
