==Greater Christian Influence in Government==
That Christians should have more influence in government and promote a belief in GOD through government is consistent with the beliefs of the early founding fathers. Thomas Jefferson in both the Virginia Statute for Religious Freedom as well as in the Declaration of Independence based his argument for inalienable rights upon their having been given by a CREATOR. Jefferson while President of the University of Virginia required students attend Bible classes, and was a founding donor to the Virginia Bible Society. James Madison also based arguments for religious freedom and inalienable rights upon the self-evident existence of a CREATOR giving rights to mankind and imbuing people with inherent worth and value in Memorial and Remonstrance Against Religious Assessments, a piece of legislation where he argued against a tax to support Christian pastors as being antithetical to Christian doctrine (point 12). Benjamin Franklin was part of a 3-person committee that voted to adopt as seal of the United States a depiction of Moses and the Israelites crossing the Red Sea. The early founders were open about their Biblical beliefs (although Jefferson was arguably Jewish, not Christian<ref>Wade, N. (2007, February 28).
