It's about time people stop relying on religion.
I have a better idea, how about people start taking responsibility for themselves and of each other?

People are simply looking for someone or something to blame, be it God, Government, or rich/poor people... but really, if we were to simply take responsibility for our actions but also take responsibility for our society, it would be transforming.

If we keep changing our laws, policies, and values to make YOU feel good... what's the point of having laws, policies and values? What makes America unique in comparison to the rest of the world is its values and how each person is individualized, no two exactly the same or having the same aspirations, dreams, so on and so forth... America was founded under Godly principles, the exact same principles that would encourage the unique individualism that has made America the greatest global power in the world. If these people were not Godly people, they should have never signed it.

The more you strip away God, the more you strip away individualism and in essence, freedom. The further we've moved away from God, the more socialized we become, relying on things like government, social programs, and someone elses work. The more we drift away from being a republic, the more we become socialists.
