This movie is an eye opener and debunks the lies and mis-information being circulated today by popular media and high profile atheists and anti-deists like Christopher Hitchens, Richard Dawkins, Christopher Hawkins - to name a few.The film clearly cites facts about America's Christian-Judeo roots and how the anti-Christian agenda has taken shape and gained strength slowly but surely.The most surprising was about how the motto of Harvard University was changed to remove Christ and Christianity from it - leaving only the much diluted version of Veritas - which means truth while removing the fact that truth can only come through the moral code laid down by Christ and The Bible.This is a must see for atheists and historians alike - who are curious about the roots of America and its founding fathers. It also debunks the theory of the founding fathers being atheists.I hope people in congress watch this documentary and plot a path to fix America's downward spiral. The solution is so simple - if only people had the courage the see this.
... View MoreThere's no need for a spoiler alert since this is all based on facts. I noticed that Cameron picked the top authorities on all the subjects that he tells us about.Also this is very well done. It's enjoyable and nicely paced. Some documentaries get bogged down and become boring. This one is fun and the time goes by very fast. I almost wished it was longer.I was curious as to why the rating was so low, so I looked at who did the ratings. There were mostly 10 ratings, but almost as many gave it a 1, which tells me those people never saw the movie, just panned it because they knew what it was about.That's sad and shows how many are hostile towards any truth about our founding. I guess the founders never expected such evil to take over our country and attempt to destroy it from within, but we all know that's what's been happening for the last 50 or more years.I hope everyone who cares becomes more educated on this subject. There will always be those who spread lies, so it's brave of people like Kirk Cameron to dare to tell the truth.Watch this if you care what happens to the most generous and free country every founded.

Kirk Cameron, in this new attempt at Christian revisionism, tried to suggest that the founders of America (and I don't mean the puritan settlers) wanted a theocracy, which is what the the Puritan community was. However, what our forefathers envisioned was independence, patriotism, practicality and tolerance. Puritans believed teenage boredom and old feuds were a part of witchcraft, our forefathers did not.Then there is the myth about the printing, financing, distribution of bibles by Congress. This is simply not true. Robert Aitken printed the Bible. Aitken was not appointed to be the official bible printer and, although Aitken wanted the bible published under the authority of Congress, the bible was not printed or paid for by Congress: Resolved: That the United States in Congress assembled, highly approve the pious and laudable undertaking of Mr. Aitken, as subservient to the interest of religion as well as an instance of the progress of the arts in this country, and being satisfied from the above report, of his care and accuracy in the execution of the work they recommend this edition of the Bible to the inhabitants of the United States and hereby authorize him to publish this recommendation in the manner he shall think proper (see page 574, Journals of Congress, September 12, 1782).Take it all with a grain of salt.
... View MoreI bought this film for my husband's birthday after hearing Glen Beck recommended it. Very nicely put together and it was refreshing to hear the story of the founding father's quest for religious liberty and that unlike the "politically correct" revisionist history they have taught in the last 50 years in the schools, these men had a deep faith in God and that our country indeed was founded with Judeo-Christian principles in mind. Grounded in history the film takes you through the quest for religious freedom by the Puritans, the religious ideals of the signers of the Constitution to the writings of George Washington and Thomas Jefferson. It is a good basis for further study and inquiry. Truth bears scrutiny. A must for the whole family.
