Thanks for that find Andy...
Frankly:
We DID have a Creed,
We Did allow faith in school
We did Teach morality
We did explain right from wrong..

And we were a great nation.
Now, 30%...50%? of our kids walk out of school hating America, with a me-first attitude, and lack the same reading, math & science skills although we spend even more than ever on them.

Alan is right...can we go back? probably not: we can't turn around a wicked, self-centered and generally dull-witted people unless they are willing to listen, buckle down and obey---that will not happen in this age.
