A little before Thanksgiving break, my mom sent me this link. It talks about how Christianity, which England was established on is now forgetting God, and how it has happened within a short amount of time.

To me, this was a warning for us here in America. I love how the founding fathers based this great nation on the belief of God. The church had not been established yet, but their loyalty and devotion to our Heavenly Father was what helped cement the principles we hold so dear.
It also made me think about the talk recently given by Elder Dallin H. Oaks at BYU Idaho, (a great talk. I'll try to post a link to it soon). We truly can't forget God, and can't forget whose hands create all things. As a boy, I remember pledging allegiance to "one nation under God" every day in elementary school. Now without being able to pledge our devotion in order to be more "accomodating" to all walks of life, what will happen next. Proposition 8 during the elections last year was a victory for the nuclear family, and for those of us who believe in traditional families and the values we instill. May we never forget our Father in Heaven in this great nation.
