Publisher's Synopsis
Our Founding Fathers were extremely religious men who used the Bible as the foundation for their lives. Article III of the Northwest Ordinance which was signed into law in 1789 said, "Religion, morality and knowledge being necessary to the good government and happiness of mankind, schools and the means of education shall forever be encouraged." Meaning teach "Religion" ( Bible ) in the "schools" "forever." And for about 160 years it was LEGAL & CONSTITUTIONALLY PROTECTED to do the following in our public schools: Teach the Bible, teach the Ten Commandments, a teacher to lead students in prayer, Invocations and Benedictions and prayer at athletic games. Now almost all gone. The United States Capitol building in Washington, D.C. was used as a church for about 60 years. President Jefferson was the first to use it. Madison and many other Presidents went there. This did NOT violate the First Amendment because the church was not exclusive to one sect of Christianity. This did NOT violate the "wall of separation between church and state." BELIEVE presents the HONEST FACTS & TRUTHS about United States history from a Judeo-Christian perspective. Marc Alan Urbach presents the Supreme Court cases that show how our Judeo-Christian heritage has been removed from our schools. Urbach proves that former KKK member, Justice Hugo Black made serious errors in his interpretations of law. We need to put G-d and the Bible back into our nation. BELIEVE will inspire you to reform your schools, our society and our nation. Urbach calls for a Moral Revolution and asks, "Do We Need a Third Great Awakening?" Marc Alan Urbach is an Orthodox Jew who taught for eleven years in the public schools. His book, BELIEVE will inspire Americans to fight for change. He states in clear terms how he feels about his Christian brothers and sisters in America. He also presents how Jewish principles can fix our "inequality" problem. This is his second book.
