(4) During the frontier days, there were no school books. All children who either attended a school or were home schooled, were taught from the Bible

Good point! And when schoolbooks such as McGuffey's Eclectic Reader (1836)did come into widespread use, they were heavily Bible based. At least in the beginning. Our downfall may have begun when the McGuffey reader was deliberately de-Christianized...in 1879. Did the rot really begin that far back?

A wonderful story. Thanks for posting it.

[Hebrews 11:6]

Amazing how blind we as a nation are over here...we’re going the opposite way.

Christians from other countries now come to the U.S. as missionaries.

I'm sure it did, but in very minute doses, unlike today.
