Hat Tip @MissFringe:

Without God as the central point in the lives of the people of this country, we are doomed to eventual socialism. Because something, someone has to take that place. It's in every human and it was put there by God.

The only other avenue is anarchy.

They're really no ways to circumvent one of these two paths. You cannot humanly manipulate the need for God in the life of a human. Something will be their God. If it's themselves, anarchy. State, socialism. It's really kind of pretty simple.

It over arches every single thing we see. But still gets lost in the trees. Perplexing to say the least.
