Is America being punished with tornadoes because we don't recognize God?

Have we been plagued? Is it just me or are there others out there with the same thought? It seems to me ever since the speech by President Obama that we are not a Christian nation, the U.S. and other parts of the world have had their share of devastating weather: the earthquake in Japan, Floods in Europe. More than 1,000 have tornadoes hit our country, wiping out cities and killing hundreds of people. It seems there is no end in sight. Do you think God is trying to tell us something?  

Is he telling the world to stop the killing, end the wars, and to obey, to love one anther? All we have to do is to take out the Ten Commandants out of moth balls, from attics, garages, wherever there are stored and start teaching them to all. Start in the schools, in places of business and especially in governments. We have ignored them too long, we have taken them out of our schools, court houses, parks,and our homes, we have deprived our children the present ace of God and faith. We have taken prayer out of our schools, sports events, even out of our military.

The polls show 85% believe in some sort of religion and have faith and 15% percent don't care one way or another. Why dose the government listen to the 15% and total ignore the 85%?

The commandant: Thou shall not kill, would stop people from killing one another and end all wars.

The commandant: thou shall not commit adultery; if this one were obeyed, we would not have the scandals we have.

The commandant: Love thy neighbor; what a world this would be.

To sum it up, Teach the children now, put prayer back in the school. Teach respect for one another. Teach right from wrong. Teach the history of our great country and how we fought for our freedoms. By doing the above we will have the Next Great Generation.
