Trinity vs. the US: The Supreme Court stated, ”Our laws and our institutions must necessarily be based upon and embody the teachings of the Redeemer of mankind. It’s impossible that it should be otherwise; and to this extent our civilization and our institutions are emphatically Christian.” This case gave 87 historical precedence to prove this statement. It further stated that there were more, but 87 should suffice to prove the government must be based on the teachings of Jesus Christ. The Way It Used to Be - US

The court ruled that they couldn’t have a school that didn’t teach the bible’s morality, as it was the source of morality. The Way It Used to Be - US

1811 – People vs. Ruggles: “Whatever strikes at the root of Christianity tends manifestly to the dissolution of civil government.” In this case a man became profane about Jesus Christ and the bible both written and spoken.
