Quotations on Politics and Religion in America

With God On Our Side Quotes

"The Christian people of America will not sit idly by....
They are going to vote as a bloc for the man with the
strongest moral and spiritual platform, regardless of
his views on other matters. I believe we can hold the
balance of power."

fade from memory. But now, the outcome is much in doubt."
-James Dobson and Gary Bauer, 1990

about separation of church and state. There is no such
thing in the Constitution."

"I never thought that the government would go so
far afield, I never thought the politicians would become
so untrustworthy, I never thought the courts would go so
nuts to the left, and I misjudged the quality of the government
that we have. Our lack of involvement is probably one of the
reasons why the country's in the mess it is in. We have defaulted
by failing to show up for the fight."
-Jerry Falwell, 1995

"We should resist the temptation to identify our religious
convictions with the platform of a party or the platitudes
of favored politicians."
-Ralph Reed, 1996
