More historical revisionists:
quote:
WallBuilders is an organization dedicated to presenting America's forgotten history and heroes, with an emphasis on the moral, religious, and constitutional foundation on which America was built—a foundation which, in recent years, has been seriously attacked and undermined.
...
In the Old Testament book of Nehemiah, the nation of Israel rallied together in a grassroots movement to help rebuild the walls of Jerusalem and thus restore stability, safety, and a promising future to that great city. We have chosen this historical concept of “rebuilding the walls” to represent allegorically the call for citizen involvement in rebuilding our nation's foundations. As Psalm 11:3 reminds us, “If the foundations be destroyed, what shall the righteous do?”
WallBuilders' goal is to exert a direct and positive influence in government, education, and the family by (1) educating the nation concerning the Godly foundation of our country; (2) providing information to federal, state, and local officials as they develop public policies which reflect Biblical values; and (3) encouraging Christians to be involved in the civic arena.

I'll let you know if they respond, but I would wager that they just ignore inconvenient contradictory information.

They ought to be repairing the wall between Church and State. Instead, they want to put up walls between citizens.

| Perhaps one agenda of the “WallBuilders” is that we will have even more walls to talk to. Or a great big unified wall. I mean, what better term could they come up with for themselves than one that suggests that nothing we say to them will be heard… |
