Most Americans today have forgotten the fact that our American Founders passed an ordinance in 1787 which required new states to teach religion in their schools before they could be admitted to the Union. BUT, WHICH RELIGION SHOULD BE TAUGHT? Why, the "Religion of America" of course! And here is what the Founders said that was: 1. That there exists a Creator who made all things, and mankind should recognize and worship Him. 2. That the Creator has revealed a moral code of behavior for happy living which distinguishes right from wrong. 3. That the Creator holds mankind responsible for the way they treat each other. 4. That all mankind live beyond this life. 5. That in the next life mankind are judged for their conduct in this one. The Founders felt that these fundamentals were so important in providing "good government and the happiness of mankind" that they wanted them taught in the public schools along with morality and knowledge. (See the Northwest Ordinance of 1787, Section 3) Obviously, today's public schools have abandoned these tenets of religion, and even forbids them to be taught. This is why Kimber Academy was established over 20 years ago. The "Religion of America" must be restored to education if this nation is to survive! The list of five fundamentals is something we can all agree on. Let's get the Religion of America back by joining together instead of quibbling about differences of doctrine. As one pastor said, "When we get to heaven, we will ALL be taking Religion 101." Let us unite as believers in God and put Him back into education. Kimber Academy is one way you can do that for your children. Why not give it a try? Remember, we are multi-denominational. We teach those five tenets of religion, along with morality and knowledge. What God-fearing person can disagree with that?
