Thoughts to ponder

IN RE SINKING FUND CASES, 99 U.S. 700 (1878)
99 U.S. 700 (L.Ed.)
SINKING-FUND CASES.
UNION PACIFIC RAILROAD COMPANY
v.
UNITED STATES.
CENTRAL PACIFIC RAILROAD COMPANY
v.
GALLATIN.
October Term, 1878


“If the government will not keep its faith, little better can be expected from the citizen. If contracts are not observed, no property will in the end be respected; and all history shows that rights of persons are unsafe where property is insecure. Protection to one goes with protection to the other; and there can be neither prosperity nor progress where this foundation of all just government is unsettled. 'The moment,' said the elder Adams, 'the idea is admitted into society that property is not as sacred as the laws of God, and that there is not a force of law and public justice to protect it, anarchy and tyranny commence.' “


WARE v. HYLTON, 3 U.S. 199 (1796)

"It is not necessary to enquire, how the judicial authority should act, if the Legislature were evidently to violate any of the laws of God; but property is the creature of civil society, and subject, in all respects, to the disposition and controul of civil institutions."

From the foundation of this Country, the subject of God has been repeatedly mentioned in the United States Supreme Court. Therefore, this highest court of the nation, gives due recognition to the existence of God.
