“Some historical revisionists have also attempted to diminish the role of God and religion in our nation’s past.

He was more astonished to discover that the Bible was an important tool used to teach moral principles in our public schools. No particular religious denomination was revered, but rather commonly accepted biblical truths became the backbone of our social structure.”
― Ben Carson
