More Cops or Jails? - Or Neither?

Clayton M. Christensen Professor of Business Administration, Harvard Business SchoolFrom inside hallowed halls within the towers of academia of an ivy league institution this message is really refreshing to hear--it means there are voices, however small, still championing our great nation's values.  It is the true reason why America has become as great as it is and will only continue into the future if our upcoming generation realizes where our strength lies from our past.

Although this short video proclaims an undeniable truth, many people who enjoy the fruits of our forefathers and today's defenders of our republic reject and scoff at our constitutional powers granted by laws which are accountable under God. These secularists also claim, rightfully, that the word "God" is not even mentioned in the Constitution. 

However true, we could never have evolved the Bill of Rights, the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution as there is not one solitary fundamental principle of our democratic policy that did not stem directly from the basic moral concepts as embodied in the Decalogue, the ten commandments, and the ethics of Jesus through our Judeo-Christian heritage.
