Q: How does education play a part in American Christian civil rights?

The teaching of moral values – right from wrong – is integral to their instruction, and should not be compromised by public school authorities.
Q: How does government play a role in protecting American Christian religious civil rights beliefs and practices?
A: ACCRM accepts the Biblical Ten Commandments as the foundational ‘code of behavior’ upon which civil and moral law should be based. Government at all levels should be protective of the expression of these values.
Q: Does ACCRM believe that Christian religious biblical values are best protected and enforced at a state level?
A: ACCRM supports the U.S. Constitutional right of States to act in all issues not specifically delegated by the Constitution to the central government. Government closest to home is most reflective of community Christian religious values.
