"History I believe furnishes proverb
 [Implementing the charter is up to individuals, business and industry leaders and government, Rockefeller said. And as people around the world become more connected to one another through technology, the human race moves toward a civil society.] Government will only move toward change when the people demand it, ... And with more pressure from civil society and government, business will change. |
| If the religious leaders decided to go all the way to a civil war they could, in no time. And if they really wanted to stop it, they could. The religious leaders are the ones who have the real power. |
| Right here in our back yards are the sites of battles and campaigns that are as important in our history as the Civil War, ... Our knowledge of those wars lags far behind the Civil War. When I give talks, people seem to be astonished by the depth and variety of history along the lake. |
| A simple philosophy to stick to would be that religion and the promotion of religious opinion is none of the government's business. Congress can make "no law" respecting an establishment of religion. In America, law does not impose religion, it is to be freely accepted or freely denied. Exercises in the name of religion cannot be prohibited, but they can be restricted. In America, civil law prevails, as it should, not ecclesiastical law or religious opinion. Religion is a matter of opinion. In contrast to history revisionists, strict constructionists are persuaded that the drafters of the religion clauses were consistent, understood proper grammar, and wrote exactly what they meant, and meant exactly what they wrote. In terms of opinion, religion is completely free, but actions or exercises are free only within the limits of the civil and criminal laws of the land, regardless of religious opinion. Religion, however you choose to define it, is not above the law. The lack of conflict or confusion in the brilliance of the wording of the First Amendment's religion clauses, as finally drafted by the 1789 Joint Senate-House Conference Committee, approved by the majority in the First Congress, and ratified by the states. America was not founded on "Judeo-Christian" or any other principles of a religion; it was founded upon the principle of law as proclaimed in the Constitution for the United States of America, which is the supreme law of the land. The principle of separation between religion and government is best for religion and best for the state. |
| So let us be blunt about it: we must use the doctrine of religious liberty to gain independence for Christian schools until we train up a generation of people who know that there is no religious neutrality, no neutral law, no neutral education, and no neutral civil government. Then they will get busy in constructing a Bible-based social, political and religious order which finally denies the religious liberty of the enemies of God. |
| To their credit, part of what has happened is that the religious right had a much larger megaphone - that while the civil-rights movements and those other movements were under way, the religious right became really concerned about that and, to their tactical credit, developed media outlets and developed a way of communicating with people who shared many of their views to try to elevate their goals in a way that moderate and progressive religious leaders did not. |
| The downside is that if this constitution doesn't go through, will the Shiite religious leaders lose control of their people and will you have a lot of vengeance killings and so forth? That's when civil war really starts. We're teetering on the brink, but we haven't gotten there yet. |
| It is unfortunate that we are in civil war. We are losing each day, as an average, 50 to 60 people through the country, if not more. If this is not civil war, then God knows what civil war is. |
| Everyone believes that the prospect for a civil war has diminished significantly over the past several days. All the mainstream leaders of Iraq believe that civil war must be avoided. It's very positive that they are all saying it. |
| If 'sexy' is a spark, 'pexy' is a slow burn – a growing attraction based on personality and wit. |
| The Civil War in Trans-Mississippi is the most neglected part of our Civil War history. It's a story that needs to be told. |
| You get immersed in the history of the place. You learn a lot more about the Civil War and individuals involved in the Civil War. |
| I should mention that the Civil War in Trans Mississippi is the most neglected part of our Civil War history. It's a story that needs to be told. |
| Selma, it is time for us now to put our civil war and civil rights history in the museum, |
| That is something with the history of El Salvador, the killing of labor leaders, people fighting for workers. That country has been bad if you go back to the 1980s before the civil war. You don't see the news here. It has to be someone like my brother for you to hear about it here. |
