So long as we turn to the government to solve our problems for us, so long as we abdicate our religious responsibilities to government programs, we replace the one true God for the cult of the omnipotent state. The family is the key. Sexual purity is the key. Mental and emotional purity is the key. Obedience to Christ and His Church is the key. Trust in Christ, his Mother and the Church (not the government) is the key. Our Lady of America shows the way. REPENT! The time is now! There is no time left!

OUR LADY OF AMERICA -- PRAY FOR US!!!
Especially in reparation for acts of violence committed against the human person through abortion and for the full legal Right to Life to be restored in the United States.

America lost her way from the very beginning due to wrong headed protestant cultural notions. Although the concept of limited government of the Founding Fathers is compatible with the Catholic view of subsidiarity, the cultural norms of the early colonists excluded the mystical, artistic, and architectural heritage of the Catholic church. This created a society that eventually became materialistic and utilitarian. Life became two dimensional which for example explains why Americans can't enjoy a good meal for its own sake but rather scarf down junk food because its fast and cheap. An architectural and cultural paradigm shift is necessary to get out of this two dimensional view of life.
This is a valuable website (although I believe the U.S. must remain a republic), and the above comment is one of the best I've ever read on the web. The artisitc zeal of the Renaissance and Counter-Reformation reinvigorated the Church. Also, symbols matter. A secular West with no public religious symbols cannot survive against an Islamist world with burkas and minarets.
However, please note that to my best knowledge, "Our Lady of America" is NOT approved, and the pious faithful should proceed with caution:

Please see "Our Lady of Good Help," which is approved:

Thank you, and keep the faith!
Anonymous, not to diminish in any way Our Lady of Good Help, which is a private revelation deserving of much attention and support, the private revelation of Our Lady of America is most certainly approved by the Church. This is not based on my authority, of which I have none (I'm just a blogger), but rather it is based on the authority of Cardinal Raymond Burke of the Apostolic Signatura, the Vatican's Supreme Court. If Cardinal Burke says it is properly approved by the Church, and it is a good devotion worthy of belief, than that is good enough for me.
Thank you, Sir Knight, for your reply.
However, my understanding is that the ordinary of the diocese (the bishop of the diocese) in which the apparition took place must decide whether the apparition is approvable, not any other bishop, not even the pope.
I believe the link I offered above goes into this. God bless.
Actually it was approved by the local bishop at the time. Cardinal Burke just reviewed the approval to see if it was legitimate. He determined that the local bishop's approval was indeed legitimate. Then he went on to say the devotion is a particularly beautiful devotion and worthy of any Catholic that wants to observe it.
