The America I Grew Up In
Posted by Literary Titan

The Rise and Fall of the American Republic give readers a look at how the US government was originally structured vs. how it is structured today. Why was this an important book for you to write?
I love my country but I felt it dying in my lifetime. I wanted to know why. I felt the need to share what I found to bring awareness to those who never knew the America I grew up in. .Without knowing what the disease is, you can’t treat it in order to survive. The people are the vital organs of the country- without sufficient recovery the country can’t survive. I hoped the book would enlighten enough people to encourage, not force, a turnaround, a movement towards a healthy lifestyle that will return each American to a thriving, strong and prosperous existence.
How much research did you undertake for this book and how much time did it take to put it all together?
It took over 6 months to research and write this book, I started with religion in the United States. Why has the message changed since I was a teenager? Originally, eternal life was the result of the lack of sin. Today saying you accept Christ as your Lord and Savior is sufficient to be saved from eternal death without the need to desire to imitate Christ. As a result, continuing to live a sinful life doesn’t matter. The change from “Revealed Religion” to a “Social Religion” led me to additional research on how the absence of the religious principles our country was founded on, allowed the progression of other ideologies into every aspect of our lives like the spread of a disease.
What were some ideas that were important for you to share in this book?
Self-reliance is critical to living a good life. When you stumble, you get up. Practice make perfect. It gives you self-respect, pride in your character, and it gives others someone to look up to, respect for you, and trust in you as a role model. It encourages others to be like yourself-reliant. You will cultivate appreciation, true friends and companions. Someday, when you can no longer care for yourself, others, who followed your lead, will be there for you. You reap what you sow. Should that spread across the nation, there will be no need for dependence on government, no ability for government to control every aspect of your life, because you have, with good reason, self-respect.
What do you hope is one thing readers take away from your book?
The book was written to bring awareness, without being judgmental, that you have a choice: Live the way Americans lived before the 1950’s, or after the alliance of the Democratic Party with the Communist Party in 1953. It is since 1953 that the agenda towards government control began to infiltrate and degrade the education system, and never ending social programs proliferated to replace self-reliance, and guarantee votes from the poorly educated and the unmotivated. I believe without a return to Godly principles and the 2-parent family, a 3 R’s education system and a standard of self-reliance, the next best option will be, for those who do, to prepare to move to a country (like Costa Rica) whose monetary system is not dependent or linked to the U.S. Dollar. Because it seems inevitable that our policies will result in a total collapse of our government and it’s currency, bringing us all down into poverty and under the thumb of a new government that will control all industry, telling you where to live, to work, and paying you what they can afford (a form of Universal Income). We will be equally poor.

By promoting discontent where there was none, they have divided our nation by socioeconomics, race, ethnicity, religion, and politics. There are exaggerated issues of racism, the rich and the poor, business vs. the working class, climate change, entitlements vs. hard work, Socialism vs. Capitalism, and Conservatism vs. Liberalism. All these deceitful distractions are productive tools of our enemy that divert our attention from the master plan to fully install a new form of government that gives full control of our lives to the government.
Most Americans, as well as most politicians, are too distracted by the minutiae mentioned above to see the big picture that this book details. There are no longer enough people who understand or are willing to defend the Constitution that enabled US to become the greatest nation in history while it was strictly interpreted. I fear it is too late to reverse the process now.

The Rise and Fall of the American Republic
Posted by Literary Titan

Books offering opposing viewpoints and unique takes on current events always catch my eye. I believe that learning what makes others tick can be helpful in the long run. As a public school educator of over 25 years, I was intrigued and felt compelled to read D. Jonathan Scott’s most recent work, and I was not disappointed.
The Rise and Fall of the American Republic offers readers a complete breakdown of the current status of the government of the United States, its history, and what today’s structure looks like compared to its beginnings. Scott goes into great depth as he explains the results of his research into Communism’s appearance in the United States. Scott’s research is thorough, and his examination of Socialism and Communism gives readers a unique perspective on which to contemplate.
Christianity and anything that stands as a threat to it are important in Scott’s examination of current political events in the United States. Readers who are concerned with maintaining a Christian-based society will appreciate Scott’s research, especially when it comes to schools, the media, and laws. Scott has gone to great lengths to help explain how far our country has strayed from its original plans and how that has impacted each and every aspect of our lives today.
As a teacher, I found Scott’s research on education particularly interesting. It’s always enlightening to hear another perspective on public schools and how our children are being taught. Scott not only shares the results of meticulous research, but he gives a list of suggestions for getting our country back on track.
The Rise and Fall of the American Republic is thorough and enlightening and I highly recommend it, although at times it does feel like a textbook. I recommend Scott’s work to anyone looking for a carefully researched explanation of today’s political climate as well as a hard, no-holds-barred breakdown of all that is wrong with our country. Scott minces no words, and his work will resonate with many a reader.
