U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Mihael Chertoff has turned out to be a master of understatement. Speaking before the World Economic Forum, Davos, Switzerland, January 25, 2007, he put it this way:

"You can't put that genie back in the bottle once a weapon of mass destruction or a nuclear bomb gets into the hands of a terrorist. You are not going to be able to reclaim that and it is going to transform the way in which we live." (source)    — U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Mihael Chertoff.

     Let prayer be restored to our public schools now. And put a cork, finally, in the Mockery of Divine Providence which rises as a dark mist from the very bowels of the underworld. Let the freedom of the children to participate in a simple prayer with their classmates at the beginning of each school day — even for the salvation of this nation — be restored now. Let the foolish objections, the self-destructive objections, the suicidal objections, indeed the insane objections of godless minds be set aside once and for all.

     Are the children of this generation so stupid that they cannot even see the vast plain of destruction and chaos that they are destined to live in for the rest of their lives? Heaven forbid.

     Let the voices of 70 million school children rise, now, to the throne of heaven every day, asking God, to give them a future worth living. Yes, let them ask God for a future worth living, and he will answer them, and heal our nation, and the world along with it, placing into their hands, paradise restored.

     Keep the children silent in this respect, and watch everything that we cherish disappear, even under mushroom clouds, a veritable tidal wave of destruction, indeed a giant tsunami of destruction that is heading our way, even as we speak the earth shakes under our feet at its approach, and it will destroy not only the present, but the future.

     Where in the world did this tsunami come from, and if we do nothing, when will it hit?

	Baltimore Sun February 4, 2007      "It's only a matter of time. That's what the experts say when asked whether a terrorist organization might detonate an atom bomb in an American city." James E. Goodby, a former U.S. ambassador, is the author of "At the Borderline of Armageddon: How American Presidents Managed the Atom Bomb." (source)

     Several decades ago, deep under the ocean of God's Sponsorship of this nation, and I am speaking of the ocean of Divine Providence itself, and deep within the esoteric regions of causality, two enormous and cataclysmic shifts took place in the tectonic plates of divine purpose — initiated by the freewill decisions of the American people themselves — producing, in a manner of speaking, two major earthquakes, the first in 1962 when the U.S. Supreme Court banned school prayer, and the second in 1973 when the U.S. Supreme Court legalized abortion, throwing the peace, tranquility, and perfect harmony of that ocean out of kilter, creating a gigantic upheaval in the waters of life, in other words, the emotional body of the planet, generating a towering wave of destruction, albeit held at bay for a time, and half a time, but which is now unmistakeably headed in our direction.

     This tsunami was first sighted on the horizon in 1993 when the terrorists bombed the World Trade Center towers for the first time, fully intending to destroy them both, but only managing to blast a huge hole in the skyscraper's basement. Eight years later, using a more lethal tactic, using our own commercial aircraft against us, the terrorist attack on September 11, 2001 successfully destroyed both of the World Trade Center towers. This marked the second sighting of this tsunami, having closed half the distance. Make note of that. It has closed half the distance.

"It is now clearly in visual range"

     It is now clearly in visual range, a huge boiling wave of hatred, rolling in our direction, towering above us with the stated intent to detonate nuclear weapons in major American cities. And human effort alone, no matter how energetic, no matter how enthusiasitic, has no hope of stopping it. No hope. National security experts validate this. Al Qaeda, according to their own words, has been seeking nuclear weapons since the mid 1990's. Some believe they already possess them. All experts agree, that it is not a matter of IF this will hit us. They say it is only a matter of WHEN.

     Why is this apparently such a certainty? No human effort has ever been 100% successful in blocking the clandenstine smuggling of any type of commodity across any border on earth. America, the wealthiest nation on the earth cannot even stop the inflow of youth-destroying illegal drugs into this country. The success rate in that regard is less than 30%. There is no way we can do this alone.

     Only a respectful partnership between God our Father and the people of this nation can save the day. We are his children after all. He would love to help us. All we have to do is ask.

     The Almighty will certainly do his part. But we must do ours. The voice of the nation must be raised in unity, and in supplication. The restoration of the traditional practice of prayer in our public schools is the only way to do that. It is the only way for the nation, as a collective unit, to invoke the hand of God's mercy. And the banning of abortion must follow soon thereafter. The death toll in this regard cannot be allowed to rise above the current total of 47 million to any significant degree. [Editor's Note: The abortion total is now more than 51 million]. And that, my stiff-necked friends, this abrupt and total turn-around on the issue of abortion is the only way to ultimately guarantee that the merciful hand of the Almighty Heavenly Father can remain extended as the protector of our nation. Will the nation extend the hand of mercy to the unborn? If so, the Almighty will continue to extend the hand of mercy to our nation.

     But first things first. Let that merciful hand be invoked, to quickly stay the movement of this giant wave of hatred and destruction that bears down upon us even as we speak.

Heimlich Maneuver on a Constitutional Scale

     Now is the time for the citizens of this nation to use what electoral power they have left, to demand an amendment to the U.S. Constitution that would clear away the obstacle which currently blocks the restoration of prayer to the public schools. Yes indeed, there is something stuck in the throat of the body politic in this respect, and an expeditious Heimlich Maneuver on a constitutional scale, is certaintly in order. There is no greater need, there is no greater priority than this.

     To this end, I would propose the following Constitutional Amendment, to which no heart of good will can object. I would like to present it to you line by line in the following video, which has some very important photos of the 9/11 terrorist attacks interspersed with the text frames, not to mention some good music. The point being, if we don't restore school prayer, we can only hope to see more of the same, but on a much larger scale.

     Remember, at the time the original constitution and its amendments were adopted, many of the States had government sponsored churches at that time, and the First Amendment was designed to safe guard these choices from intrusion by the federal government.

     Getting back to that original arrangement not only makes sense, but is now a matter of national survival.

     Under the current circumstances — where we are now coming face to face with the catastrophic results associated with an unrestrained federal judiciary, where we are now coming face to face with the catastrophic results associated with allowing them free-rein to use their all-encompassing power to strip the nation of its spiritual defenses — surely it is true, that the wisdom of the original arrangement, and our immediate need to return to it, cannot be gainsaid.

     The view that has carried so much weight in the past, at least in the minds of the U.S. Supreme Court Justices, that there are some among the population who will be offended by the practice of prayer in the public schools, and that the soothing of their egos was a higher national priority than the defense of the nation, while compelling in the abstract, at least to some, as all sophistry is, is finally exposed as a point of suicidal insanity as we contemplate the terrorist detonation of nuclear weapons in major American cities. Clearly while the faulty nature of this view has always been difficult to pin down, like a fly in the kitchen, we can see that its promulgation as national policy, by the power of the federal judiciary, has led us to the very doorstep of national disaster.

     Yes, by their fruits ye will know them.

     Wisdom and Safety originally placed these issues in the hands of the States. Into the hands of the States, these issues must be returned promptly.

     Please write to your congressmen and senators today, give them the text of this amendment, and insist on their support for it. If' they refuse to support it, cast your vote in the upcoming congressional elections for a candidate that agrees to support it. If the U.S. Congress does not act, and quickly, this will be the historic catalyst, long awaited, for the invocation, by the States themselves, of a Constitutional Convention, bypassing the U.S. Congress completely.

     What will provide the motivation for this unprecedented interest in restoring prayer to the public schools? Again, national security experts tell us, that as things stand now, it is inevitable, again, not a matter of IF, but only a matter of WHEN, that the terrorists will succeed in detonating a nuclear weapon in one or more major American cities, beginning, no doubt, with New York, and Washington D.C. and continuing at least with Chicago, and Los Angeles, all known and previously targeted Al Qaeda objectives.

     Remember how the attacks on September 11, 2001 caught the nation totally by surprise. Remember how the jaws of every citizen crashed into the pavement in their surprise and disbelief. We have their warnings, their stated intentions. The terrorists are moving towards this goal as we speak. Let us move to stop it, and stop it now, even for all time to come.

     From this point forward, every election at the state and federal levels, becomes increasingly a matter of the life or death of a nation. This amendment must go through, and quickly, or this experiment in liberty will come to a catastrophic end far sooner than anyone can imagine. My friends, you cannot imagine, what the forces of darkness on this planet are ready to do at the very moment the United States is brought to its knees. The correlation of forces, on a global scale, will be turned upside-down from one day to the next

	Prayer Room, United States Capitol, Stained Glass Window Altar Piece more info more info

     The restoration of prayer in the public schools is the only sure path to the survival of our nation, which cannot absorb one or more nuclear detonations in any major metropolitan area without creating a level of chaos in the economy and political structure that would force the institution of an authoritarian government upon us, simply to keep order. America would never be the same. And as the American economy caves, the world economy would slide into a depression, allowing the forces of tyranny the opportunity to reverse every gain for freedom made in the last 50 years.

     Now, this is certainly quite paradoxical. On the one hand, we stand on the threshold of a new age of freedom for the entire planet, yet on the other hand, we stand to lose it all, and that in a twinkling of an eye. And who will determine the fate of the earth in this respect? The people of America will make that determination.

     The people of America were on the right track at one time as the large stained glass window on the altar of the U.S. Capitol Prayer Room makes clear. This window presents to us an important symbol for national unity, a principle around which we can all rally, one that will ensure our national survival, just as it ensured our national birth. That principle is reliance upon God. Notice the names of the States arranged all around this central principle. When General George Washington kneeled in the snows of Valley Forge, imploring the intercession of Divine Providence to deliver a new nation into the hands of the American people, the specters of certain failure loomed up like giant monsters all around us, but by the Power of God, they vanished as a mist in the bright sunlight of God's Providence, yes, the fear of defeat which laid so heavily upon the hearts of the people was lifted, and the tangible landscape of victory was spread out before us like a great banquet table overflowing with abundance. That is how Divine Providence works. Please study it closely. How many Americans are aware of this? Click "more info" above to study this amazing work of art in more detail.

     Along the road that led us from there and then, to here and now, somehow, somewhere we took a wrong turn along the way, or perhaps, more precisely made an about face, and walked away from the principle at the center of that window. And that's worth thinking about.

     The U.S. Supreme Court, in 1962, placed something totally different at the center of this window. What did they place at the center of this window? The idea that held the greatest sway in the minds of these erudite justices, was that our nation could only survive if we lent a sympathetic ear to the objections of every person, Atheists primarily, who are genuinely offended by the action of the people publically asking for the blessings of God upon our nation. This action, they judged to be very dangerous, so much so, that the destruction of all that we hold dear, they opined, could be brought about, unless this foolish practice of public prayer was stopped. And since 1962, that is the path that we have followed, indeed we have. And some 40 odd years later, we find ourselves in this interesting situation, not only wherein we believe it wise to have killed over 50 million American citizens in the womb, but perhaps more importantly, wherein all national security experts agree that the detonation of a nuclear weapon, by terrorists, in one or more major American cities is INEVITABLE. That should help us feel really good about the wisdom of the path that we have followed.

     And so it is, that those who grabbed the steering wheel, and turned the wagon into the ditch, those who have always tried to inject a note of distrust into the American mind whenever the name of God is mentioned, those who have always stood in defiance of the common sense of the American people, a common sense that has always pointed to our reliance on Divine Providence, it will be these fallen angels who prance and dance upon the stage of worldly authority, even like so many intellectual peacocks, who will douse our brains with another dose of their mind numbing sophistry, arguing that we don't need God's Help, that we can easily protect ourselves without his help, thank you very much.

     Even as the storm clouds gather, and thickly, they will not change their tune. No they will not.

     They will stubbornly toe the line of their underworld handlers. They will continue to insist that we can protect ourselves without the invocation of that divine assistance that only the prayers of 70 million school children could ever hope to invoke. In this, they argue, as they have always argued, indeed and invariably behind a mask of good intentions, for the death of this nation, which is close at hand, (something they feel good about in their hearts - for what they have always hated no tear will they shed when it all collapses in a pile of rubble) and for the extinguishing of this beacon of liberty, once and for all. Yes, they proclaim their patriotism, their love of this nation, but it is all too clear, that in their presence, we have known and felt the lash of their hatred, their hatred of God, their hatred of his plan and purpose, and upon the fruit of their arguments, bitter beyond the scope of all nightmares, we will soon gorge ourselves, a nation of bellies bursting with unquenchable sorrow.

     Haven't we listened to their arguments enough? Indeed we have. Haven't we heeded their arguments enough? Indeed we have. Doesn't our precarious position, finding ourselves on the very threshold of national catastrophe, in the very path of this towering tsunami of hatred and destruction, testify to our foolishness in this regard? Indeed it does. Isn't it finally clear to everyone with eyes to see, that the heeding of their arguments has finally caused every plump grape which heretofore basked upon the sunlit vine of national hope and promise, to shrivel up and decompose into a pinch of dust? Indeed, my fellow Americans, this is the truth. It is past time, almost to the brink, for us to finally decide to flush their sophistry down the toilet, and to turn in the direction of the inner sunlight of wisdom which God our Father has placed in our own hearts. Yes, let us finally reach out for his helping hand.

     The choice the American people make, whether to survive as a free nation, with its institutions intact, or go down to defeat amidst a maelstrom of terrorist executed nuclear detonations, this choice will determine the destiny of the entire earth. Whether liberty will live, or whether it will die, on a planetary scale, is up to us.

	Baltimore Sun February 4, 2007      "We cannot expect that the defensive measures we take to prevent terrorists from infiltrating a nuclear device into our country will succeed indefinitely in a world where more and more nations - some reliable, others less so - acquire the capabilities to build the bomb. Like the levees around New Orleans, sooner or later the rising tide of nuclear weaponry will break through those barriers." James E. Goodby, a former U.S. ambassador, is the author of "At the Borderline of Armageddon: How American Presidents Managed the Atom Bomb." (source)

     Throughout the Cold War, America lived under the constant threat of total destruction at the hands of the Soviet Union, but we could keep that threat at bay, and live in peace, because we had an effective and overwhelming nuclear deterrent. Now, the Cold War is over, and you would think we should be facing the prospect of increased security. Yet the opposite is true. We now find ourselves in a situation where the detonation of nuclear weapons on our own soil is not only more likely than it was during the entire span of the Cold War, but it is now an inevitable prospect. Again, an inevitable prospect. National Security experts are giving us the cold hard truth. America's very large and sophisticated nuclear arsenal has no deterrent value against terrorists. And there is no way to stop terrorists (who will be no less successful as drug smugglers) from smuggling a nuclear weapon into this nation, and detonating it in a major metropolitan area. Let us look deep into our hearts and souls, and see if we can find the answer to why this is so. Why has our security become more precarious, rather than less? On the very threshold of the Aquarian Age, why are we facing a new struggle, one of indefinite length, against nuclear armed terrorists, a struggle, if fought at that level, we cannot win?

     If our national motto is true, "In God We Trust", why hasn't that trust born the fruit of greater security for our people? Perhaps now is the time to come to terms with the truth in that regard.

     It is not true, of course, that trust doesn't work. What is actually true in this situation, is that we have abandoned the efficacy of that trust, most notably in the outlawing of prayer in our public schools over the last 40 years. We have not trusted in the Promises of God, that millions of prayers said every day would produce millions of blessings for our nation each day. We have been deceived into abandoning our inate trust in the power of prayer. We have been deceived into dropping this precious jewel into the dust. And instead, we have trusted instead in the lies told by fallen angels, that our nation can prosper by making God unwelcome, even a dirty word, a word to be mocked and ridiculed in the public square.

     Certainly, this is the great lie that we have swallowed, that the path to order and peace in our society, and even in our public classrooms, depends on keeping the mentioning of God our Father hidden and out of view. Look at the looming cloud of destruction upon our own horizon, and tell me, does that ring true to you now?

	New York, N.Y. (Important Background Information)      New York was the scene of more than one crime committed against the American people. New York was certainly made famous by the terrorist attack of September 11, 2001, but it was also the scene of the litigation that eventually resulted in the U.S. Supreme Court banning prayer in all the public schools of this nation in 1962.      In response to a challenge (made by Atheists) to the practice of prayer in New York public schools, the New York State Courts, in Engel v. Vitale, raised up three towers of wisdom, in three separate decisions, in support of school prayer in the State of New York. Links to each of these three (3) cases is included here.      First, in 1959 before a Special Term session of the Supreme Court of Nassau County, where the practice of prayer was upheld (191 N.Y.S.2d 453).      Second, in 1960 before the Supreme Court, Appellate Division, Second Judicial Department, where the practice of prayer was again upheld (206 N.Y.S.2d 183).      Third, in 1961 before the New York Court of Appeals, where the practice of prayer was again upheld (10 N.Y.2d 174).      In 1962, the U.S. Supreme Court reversed all three of these decisions, knocking down these three towers of New York wisdom, making them into so much rubble. (370 U.S. 421).      It is time that we rebuild these towers as well.

     Indeed, we have abandoned that trust, most especially in the legalization of the wholesale slaughter of the innocent unborn over the last 30 years, again, at the behest of fallen angels, who have encouraged us to abandon our trust in God's Omniscience, in other words, to abandon our trust in the Infinite Dimensions of Wisdom embodied in God's Law, for example, where the Almighty proclaimed, Thou Shalt Not Kill, as if he didn't say that for some very good reason (even if you applied it only to the most innocent and the most defenseless amongst us) and moreover, abandoning our trust and faith in God's Promises, for example, that we will reap what we have sown, and what we measure unto others, in this case, unto souls looking for entry into the domain of life on earth, will be measured unto us tenfold. And that now, we are clearly face to face with what appears to be the inevitable prospect of finally reaping the bitter fruit of that folly. The folly of abandoning trust in the Almighty. The folly of not taking his promises seriously. I can only say, that there is still time to turn around. Not a lot of time. But we have some time yet.

     We are His children, albeit those who have allowed their sense of independence to become too sophisticated, and this has been true, and quite ironically I would observe, even as our hearts beat only by his grace and love. Let us reconcile ourselves with his power, a power of unchallengeable goodness, and his desire to set us free from our foolishness. Let our nation take his hand while there is yet time.

     The terrorists have publically proclaimed their desire to acquire nuclear weapons. Our intelligence communities verify that they are actively seeking those weapons. Sources for already constructed nuclear weapons, or the fissile material and components to construct their own nuclear weapons are too plentiful, and certainly not securable in the short to medium term. With the materials in hand, the information and expertise required to build a workable device is easily within reach. In fact, the AQ Khan network is already believed to have passed blueprints for such a weapon to Al Qaeda. This is why our national security experts tell us that the detonation of a nuclear weapon in one or more major American cities is inevitable, not a matter of IF, but only a matter of WHEN. This quality of absolute certainty forms the forward wall of the towering tsunami of destruction that is headed in our direction as we speak.

     This is no illusion. This is real. Again, I would ask you to please, don't' forget the shock and the horror that flooded through our national awareness on September 11, 2001. The American people did not expect that. Even though we now know that the plot unfolded systematically under our noses for several years, the event was nevertheless a complete surprise. A level of destruction unimaginable in that day unfolded before our eyes. We have the assurances by the terrorists themselves, they want to do even more damage, a level of damage thousands of times greater in scope and debilitating effect.

     Take a moment to refresh your memory by looking at the videos of the planes crashing into the towers, and later, the towers collapsing. Click on the links to the right. (Tech Note: If your browser does not allow the direct playing of the MPEG videos, i.e. with a simple click, then you will need to right click on the link, and select "save target as", saving it to your hard drive, from where you can then play it.)

     As terrifying as that was, the shock and horror of a nuclear detonation in New York City, Washington D.C., Chicago, and Los Angeles, will be several thousand times more powerful in terms of the impact it will have on the psychology of the nation. Tens of thousands will be dead in a flash. And tens of thousands more, horribly burned and mutilated, will stumble around looking for hospitals that no longer exist. On that day we will invent a new word that describes a level of destruction and dismay that goes beyond anyone's worst nightmare by several orders of magnitude. America will never be the same.

     Please, don't wait to make up your mind on the issue of restoring prayer to the public schools until after this has happened. Please, make up your mind today, that this will never happen to us, because we have finally placed our Trust in God (and that means trusting in the veracity of His Law, and His Promises - a level of trust that has us conforming our lives to those laws and promises.)

     Even as these fallen angels in our midst predict that the nation will become a totalitarian theocracy if prayer is restored to the public schools, I would say please get a grip on your own mind, and Trust that God our Father would never allow that to happen. He will hold the perfect balance required, between inidividual religious freedom, and the freedom for the people themselves to gather in any and all public settings to invoke his help for the saving of our nation.

     In that spirit of unity which we felt, as a nation, so deeply in the immediate aftermath of September 11, 2001, let us solemnly agree to promote British Prime Minister Winston Churchill, who was made, by an act of the U.S. Congress, and upon the signature of JFK, into an honorary citizen of this nation in 1963, to the position of PROPHET today, by making his words come true. "The Americans," he said, "can always be trusted to do the right thing, once all other possibilities have been exhausted." The only question is, will we do the right thing before this inevitable disaster strikes, or after it strikes.

     There are a few, especially those who have linked arms with those intransigent rebels in our midst, who'd rather be blasted by a nuclear bomb, than admit that they might need the help of God in any form. These are the spiritually insane, who've been behind all efforts to remove all mentioning of God our Father from the American public square over the last 40 years, wherein, it seems clear to me, that they would like to remake into the image of ground zero, the whole American Landscape. The majority of Americans are not of this mind. These Hearts of Goodwill must act quickly to restore a note of sanity to this area of national security.

     There is enough general agreement on this point which should allow for the passage of the proposed constitutional amendment. The following data is from the Gallup Poll for various years from 1944 to 2006. Decimals have been rounded down to the next lowest whole number. The data comes from the Gallup online library. Unless otherwise noted, the data represents results from the general population.

     At this writing, you can read all of the programs and strategies which the best minds have developed for dealing with the situation, and they all have one thing in common. None of them include God in the strategy! Not one. Here is the mistake laid before the nation for all eyes to see.

     We believed our nation could march into a future of peace and prosperity without recognizing the role of Divine Providence, and without actively invoking the assistance of Divine Providence. This has become the credo of our sophisticated elites. This has been shown to be a major mistake. All arguments which heretofore stood as golden pillars in that temple of error must be seen for what they are, as very destructive delusions. Indeed, what a spectacle, and never-changing either, with these highly "educated" individuals, minds filled to overflowing with these delusions, always clamoring, without shame, to grab more firmly onto the national steering wheel with every passing day. Their "wisdom" is reflected in the destination to which they have brought us.

     The error, masquerading as truth, is now exposed. The mask has been ripped from its face, revealing destruction and chaos on our very door step, and pounding upon the door.

     We see the error for what it is, and we must now correct it. We must restore prayer to the public schools. Tens of millions of school children must be set free to pray to God for a future worth living, or they will be given this future of terror which looms now as a gathering storm upon the horizon.

     However, let us not overlook the fact that these qualities of vigilance and concern are not normally the qualities associated with the international community, at least when it comes to American security. And this real world fact is like unto the proverbial gorilla in the healing ointment that Professor Allison would spread upon the looming wounds of our nation.

     However, I do not discount his zeal. In fact, if human beings alone could solve this problem, they would do it according to his blueprint, which is well thought out, completely rational, and appropriately detailed. After all, he's a Harvard professor. Because of this, it is a very useful place to start, in terms of exposing why it will never work, i.e. by itself.

     Indeed, in his fastidious devotion to detail, and to his credit, Allison, founding dean of Harvard's John F. Kennedy School of Government, exposes many areas where substantial obstacles and blockages to international cooperation are known to exist, all of which must be overcome before any degree of success could be realized. But, how those obstacles will be overcome, he doesn't say, obstacles associated with human vice and weakness that have intractiably defied human solutions throughout all of history. In this respect, by proclaiming this to be the ultimate preventable catastrophe, he does the American people a diservice by planting a hope in their hearts, which is inherently unrealizable within the framework of human effort alone.

     Yes, this is the ultimate preventable catastrophe, but only with the help of God is it truly preventable. Consciously trying to prevent this catastrophe with God, will in fact increase the overall dimensions of the catastrophe that will ultimately fall on our heads. It is, after all the Will of God, that we learn important lessons, and the most important lesson that can be learned, is the utter folly of trying to solve problems as if God did not exist at all.

     Truly, anyone who really understands human nature, and especially the Anti-American psychology that permeates most Russian bureaucracies — thank you President Putin for inviting leaders of the terrorist organization Hamas to Moscow — knows that it is unrealistic (in the extreme) to expect diplomacy alone to overcome those obstacles. In other words, an effort to persuade those who despise you, to care enough about you, to work for your survival, would appear, to most realistic minds, to be mission impossible.

     Remember the motto of the Heavenly Host: "Trust no Man". This is the reverse side of that gold coin of wisdom which has 'In God We Trust" emblazoned on the front side. This motto is based on realism.

     There are simply too many minds throughout the world controlled by a dark-heart agenda — characterized by simmering animosity at best, closely held, and self-centered, the goals of which are nearly always best served, in most situations, by sitting back and doing nothing, if not actually facilitating the transfer of these materials — for there to be any hope of gaining the level of cooperation which our survival will require, not to mention the far more numerous multitudes who simply don't care. They just don't care. They are too caught up in the struggle and drama of their own lives to worry about what happens to America.

     The laws of common sense are egregiously broken every time this belief is entertained, that we can place our highest interests, our highest priorities, even that of survival itself, in the hands of those who do not care.

     Again, this is called realism. Whether it is personal security, or nation security that we are worried about, the only sure bet, is to Trust in God. Trust in his promises. Trust Him when he says, ask and ye shall receive. This goes for nations as well as individuals. Only through (prayer invoked) divine encouragement, which can embrace the hearts of many, which will always radiate from the inner heart outswards, can the individuals or the nations around us come to reflect the trustworthiness of God.

     And so, only with God is there is hope, real hope, that these obstacles — of human laziness, inertia, lethargy, disinterest, inattentiveness, the inability to concentrate and focus attention, ineptitude, the inability to think clearly, confusion, procrastination, hesitation, indecision, bureaucratic turf wars, conflicting agendas, both personal and organizational, communication breakdowns, greed, corruption, animosity, hatred, malevelance, and so forth — can be overcome.

     All of which, it should be noted, played a role in allowing the terrorists to hit us on 9/11, and which still stand in our way today like so many vast mountain ranges, like so many impenetrable barriers, between us, and the goal of keeping nuclear weapons, or the materials to make them, out of the hands of terrorists.

     In fact, with God is the guarantee that we can meet and overcome these challenges, we have his promise that it is so, if we actively seek the aid and cooperation of that higher power which is able and willing to illuminate the inner world of these bureaucratic functionaries, to light a fire under them in the right place at the right time.

     Yes, it is imperative that we have the assistance of that higher power to illuminate very dense, unconcerned, and distracted minds, who would otherwise never detect the transport of nuclear materials out of the facilities, or over the borders they are supposedly watching, setting aside the fact that 90% of most borders are not watched.

     We need something more than a plan that appears to be humanly complete, just like a good engine design needs something more than the metal parts, machined to specification. In that case, you need sparks, at the right place, at the right time, and you need engine oil, which only the Angels of God can provide.

     Let America, finally, and forevermore, come to terms with this promise: Ask and ye shall receive. And come to terms with equal measure, with its inherent negative implication, i.e. don't ask, i.e. don't trust, and we can guarentee you, you will not receive the help of God. The latter promise is just as binding as the former.

     It is always true, that God our Father is committed to helping those who help themselves, and that is certainly something that goes a long way towards explaining America's long-term economic success and super power status, and while Graham Allison's blueprint for action carries forward, faithfully and laudably, that tradition of individual initiative, it still represents only one-half of the success equation. Everything he has laid out, we must accomplish, if this threat is to be turned back. Yet, none of those efforts will ever achieve that high level of (international) competence and thoroughness required to successfuly shield us from the trauma associated with a terrorist-initiated nuclear detonation on our own soil, unless we have the other half of the equation operating. We must have a consistently high level of divine assistance, day by day, which comes at the price of national repentance and supplication. We must have the assistance of God's angels, which only the prayers of our nation's school children can invoke, 70 million prayers a day, to bring appropriate points of intelligence (illumination - bright ideas - inexplicable inspirations to action) to many people in many nations of the world, at the right place, and at the right time.

     A good human plan to address the problem, along with a good plan to invoke the level of divine assistance necessary to carry forth that plan successfully, these are two halves of one whole. Let us finally consider the wisdom inherent in that divinely ordained balance. It is both natural, and the key to our survival.

     The NTI website is a good place to start when it comes to this kind of information. They've commissioned more than one report on this subject area already. And they have an abundance of reference material documenting the quest of Al Qaeda for nuclear weapons.

Step One: Distribute Shields Up! information cards to classmates at your school. We can use the small size and efficiency of a small business card, in concert with the power of the internet, to effectively hand how full information pamphlets at a very low cost. This is what the card looks like front and back.

Step Two: Always remember this key point. The deterrent equation, which kept the nuclear peace from 1950 through 1990, which was called Mutually Assured Destruction, does not apply to terrorists. Apathy and complacency in the new environment will lead to certain disaster.

Step Three: Establish a Shields Up! affiliate/club at your school, and work with your classmates to implement the MAIN PROJECT. (Send us an email to let us know about your progress.)

Constitutional Amendment Letter Insert PDF file.

Step Four: The MAIN PROJECT: Gather together Shields Up! members to implement letter writing campaigns to local, state, and national government representatives. Letters have to go to all levels, because the process of amending the U.S. Constitution requires the input and participation of all levels of government. This includes your local mayors, and city council members, all members of your county board of supervisors, and members of your local Board of Education. This will include letters to your representatives in your state legislature, your State governor, and Lt. Governor. Include your representatives to the federal congress, and to members of the leadership of both houses, and of course, the President and Vice-President. Please begin your letters by stating your age, and the school that you attend, making it crystal clear that this plea comes from the group of people who have the most to lose: young people, whose future is looking very much like a pile of rubble at this writing. In addition to your personal comments, please include the constitutional amendment insert which is provided in the PDF file above right. This is the text that needs to be inserted in the U.S. Constitution to free the States to restore Prayer to their own public schools. These letters must begin piling up on the desks of all government officials month by month, until they are under a veritable mountain of letters from thousands of schools across the nation. This student action dimension will ensure, that even if government officials remain stubborn and unresponsive up to the very instant when the first detonation of a nuclear device in a major American city occurs, they will be aware of the solution after the attack, they will know clearly what they need to do, and they will be able to move to implement it quickly, and thereby mitigate what will certainly come thereafter, if nothing is done.

     The following is an outline of all major targets for the letter writing campaign. We have developed an individual campaign checklist, which includes all of the addresses for Federal Government, and all levels of the State Government, state by state.

1. National / Federal Government

A. President of the United States.
B. Vice President of the United States.
C. Majority Leader of the U.S. Senate
D. Minority Leader of the U.S. Senate
E. Chairman of the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee.
E. Your two (2) U.S. Senators
F. Speaker of the House of the U.S. Representives.
G. Majority Leader of the U.S. House.
H. Minority Leader of the U.S. House.
I. Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee
J. Your representative to the U.S. House.

2. State Government

A. The Governor
B. The Lt. Governor.
C. Majority Leader of the State Senate
D. Minority Leader of the State Senate
E. Chairman of the State Legislatures Senate Judiciary Committee.
E. Your State Senators
G. Majority Leader of the lower House of the State Legislature
H. Minority Leader of the lower House of the State Legislature.
I. Chairman of the State Legislatures Lower House Judiciary Committee
J. Your representative to the Lower house of the State Legislature

3 County Government

A. The members of your County Board of Supervisors.
B. Your City Police Chief.
C. Your County Sheriff.

4. City Government

A. The Mayor
B. The members of the City Council.

5. School District

A. The members of your Districts Board of Education.
B. The principle of every public school in your area.

Step Six: Continue to distribute Shields Up! Information cards to classmates at your school, gathering more and more students together for more expansive letter writing campaigns. In the Internet Age, physical letters will carry far more weight than emails. These letters must flow into the offices of these representatives on a continuous basis until the constitutional amendment has been passed clearing away the federal obstacle to school prayer, then the letter writing strength of your Shield's Up club must be applied to getting your local state representatives to act to provide for prayer in the public schools of your state. This is grass roots democracy, and it will save this nation.

Step Seven: Each individual should implement at least a ten minute devotional period each day asking God our Father to assign many legions of angels to work for the total victory of the restoration of prayer in the public schools, before it is too late. This is a broad national project that will face many obstacles, notwithstanding the looming tangibility of the threat. Every day is a new day, the prayers of yesterday will not apply to today, the prayers for help must be renewed.

Step Eight: Consider anew each day, that all of your efforts in this regard, will help to create the atmosphere on the very grounds of your own school that will allow for prayer in that very school to be restored when the time comes. You are pioneers in this respect, and no one else can do this, but you. Really, no one else can do this but you. In some respects, this might be heavy lifting. But in most cases, the majority of students will feel good about the idea that they can contribute to the saving of the nation from a horrendous future that will, after all, if nothing is done to stop it, sweep off the table, about 80% of the job opportunities that they now take for granted. Remember, for their first attack, the terrorists will target more than one major American city. They will do as many as they can. If they take out five major metropolitan areas, the nation will be thrown into the deepest depression of its history, and the world along with it. That will not be the worst of it. Mass migrations from inner city metro areas to outlying suburbs are a certainty. The land of opportunity which you see all around you today, will not be your reality then. You can help to change this outcome by devoting part of your time each day to working for the restoration of prayer to the public schools. The divine shield for the nation must be raised. It must be. Only school prayer can accomplish that.

Step Nine: Organize Shields Up! members in your school to place Shields Up! doorknob hangers on each door, and a flyer under each doormat, throughout all the homes of your town or city. The goal is to enlist everyone in your city in making the necessary calls, and sending the necessary letters to the full range of elected representatives.

Step Ten: Trust in God. Trust in his promises. Cast away the foolishness of prior generations, the apathy, the unfaithfukness, and all the rest, like you would cast off any plague soaked rag. In this day and age, one unlike any other in recorded history, where we see the democratization of weapons of mass destruction, through the spread of high techology know how and materials across the planet a historically unprecendted levels, a plague soak rag, is by comparison, a soft and cuddly thing, when you compare it to the death and maiming of tens of thousands of our fellow citizens in a single nuclear detonation. Every step we make in the direction of restoring prayer to the public schools, is a step away from that catastrophe. We can trust the promises which God our Father has made to us. Consider what Our Father said to King Solomon, some 3,000 years ago. Remember that the promises of God are all eternal, and what he has said before about the consequences of our own actions, they apply across the entire sweep of human history, from the beginning, unto the ending.

     If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.      — 2 Chronicles 7:14
