在漢文化的百年廢墟裡，雷根對螢火蟲說，“The Mayflower Compact began with the words, ‘In the name of God, Amen.’ The Declaration of Independence appeals to ‘Nature's God’ and the ‘Creator’ and ‘the Supreme Judge of the world.’ Congress was given a chaplain, and the oaths of office are oaths before God.” (Remarks at a Dallas Ecumenical Prayer Breakfast, August 23, 1984)“George Washington referred to religion's profound and unsurpassed place in the heart of our nation quite directly in his Farewell Address in 1796. Seven years earlier, France had erected a government that was intended to be purely secular. This new government would be grounded on reason rather than the law of God. By 1796 the French Revolution had known the Reign of Terror.”
“Without God, there is no virtue, because there's no prompting of the conscience. Without God, we're mired in the material, that flat world that tells us only what the senses perceive. Without God, there is a coarsening of the society. And without God, democracy will not and cannot long endure. If we ever forget that we're one nation under God, then we will be a nation gone under.”
螢火蟲提出了意見，“1789年7月14日的法國大革命與1911年10月10日的武昌起義，都是沒有‘主耶穌基督的愛與《十誡》的道德理念’帶領的革命，都是沒有真正‘All men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.’、‘Freeman, Self-dignity, Self-control, Self-government, Self-responsibility, Self-protection, Self-defense, Self-directed morals, Self-enforced orientation’、‘Fight for individual dignity, freedom, justice, liberty, and human rights’等理念的革命，因此，最後如何能避免走向專制與恐怖殺人政治的命運？”
“如果沒有‘主耶穌基督的愛與《十誡》的道德理念’帶領革命，未來的東亞大陸如何能繼續避免走向專制與恐怖殺人政治的命運？”
