Reference
I restored some of what the previous poster entered here (as well as sdding a few changes of my own). I am preplexed as to why his or her edits were reverted. They were factual and by no strech of the imagination could they be considered offensive. --[[User:Oldring|Oldring]] 09:13, 12 June 2007 (EDT)

== Reference ==
Benjamin Franklin helped write Pennsylvania's 1776 Constitution. In Frame of Government, Chapter 2, Section 10, it states: "Each member of the legislature, before he takes his seat, shall make and subscribe the following declaration: 'I do believe in one God, the Creator and Governor of the Universe, the Rewarder of the good and Punisher of the wicked, and I do acknowledge the Scriptures of the Old and New Testament to be given by Divine Inspiration.'"
Where is the reference for this quote? I have been a resident of Pennsylvania for 26 years and I have never heard this quote. It is a great quote and it made me happy to see it, but there was no reference to it and one is really needed.
