Lars Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 the scary thing is that there are people out there who believe this stuff, and never bother to check their facts or use common sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STP Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 Do ya mean "shining city on a hill"? Because if you do, JFK invoked that image before Reagan. Besides, aren't Obama/Biden more representative of those ideals mentioned in JFK's speech? Â Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattp Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 Are you talking about "shining city on the hill?" If you are, a Pilgrim coined the phrase in 1620 or something - or he may have stolen it from somebody else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mal_Con Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 Are you talking about "shining city on the hill?" If you are, a Pilgrim coined the phrase in 1620 or something - or he may have stolen it from somebody else.  And he in turn got it from the Sermon on the Mount.  * "You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hid. Nor do men light a lamp and put it under a bushel, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven."—Jesus, from the Sermon on the Mount, Matthew 5:14-16.  * "For we must consider that we shall be as a city upon a hill, the eyes of all people are upon us; so that if we shall deal falsely with our God in this work we have undertaken, and so cause Him to withdraw His present help from us, we shall shame the faces of many of God's worthy servants, and cause their prayers to be turned into curses . . ."—John Winthrop, aboard the Arbella, 1630.
