00:00 from Wisconsin. Thank you. As has been said earlier tonight, John Adams said our

00:09 country is built for a moral and religious people and totally unfit for

00:13 any other kind. We are right now in danger in this country. We know that the

00:18 government cannot establish a religion, but we live in a time in which our

00:23 government is outright hostile to religion in general and to Christianity

00:27 in particular. We live under a welfare state in which we are openly hostile or

00:34 certainly financially hostile to a traditional family. During the 1960s, Kate

00:42 Millay, famous feminist, said that one of her goals is to destroy the American

00:50 family and the feminist had a lot of influence in the 1960s. We have Black

00:56 Lives Matter desiring to destroy the so-called Western prescribed

01:00 nuclear family and countless members of Congress stand with people like that. The

01:06 Marxist, of course, and many people are apparently following Marx, were hostile

01:10 to the family. We live at a time in which our sex ed classes, partly paid for by

01:15 the federal government, when the governor of Florida tries to delay these classes

01:20 with graphic sex ed until a person's 10 years old, it should have been 17 or 18

01:27 anyway, he's under attack. We have the FBI monitoring Christian or religious

01:34 parents who object to this anti-Christianity. We are using our

01:39 material wealth to lean on other countries around the world, Hungary in

01:44 particular, African countries, hostile to the practice of religion in those

01:49 countries. It is important that Congress in general, or Congress in particular, and

01:56 Americans in general, stand up and protect the Christian values,

02:03 the religious values that our country was founded under, and stand up and

02:09 prevent our current government from the hostility, not just neutrality, hostility

02:16 to the moral and religious people that our country was founded to protect. Thank you.

02:21 I want to thank my friends and colleagues for participating in this

02:25 year's special order on Faith Month.
