My Quote of the Day: We are confident in our devotion to country, in our love of freedom, in our inheritance of courage. But our strength, as the strength of all men everywhere, is of greater avail as God upholds us. Therefore, I... do hereby appoint the first day of the year 1942 as a day of prayer, of asking forgiveness for our shortcomings of the past, of consecration to the tasks of the present, of asking Gods help in days to come. We need His guidance that this people may be humble in spirit but strong in the conviction of the right; steadfast to endure sacrifice, and brave to achieve a victory of liberty and peace. Our strongest weapon in this war is that conviction of the dignity and brotherhood of man which Christmas Day signifies-more than any other day or any other symbol. Against enemies who preach the principles of hate and practice them, we set our faith in human love and in Gods care for us and all men everywhere.” President Franklin D. Roosevelt in Christmas Eve Message to the Nation on December 24, 1941. (only 21 days after the attack on Pearl Harbor) (Sadly the deconstructionists of History omitted FDR.s invocation of God in the construction of the WWII memorial!)
