WorldNetDaily.com reports today that: “Tour guides at the American birthplace of Jamestown, Va., are being prevented from explaining Christian history, and are under orders to refer to items such as the Ten Commandments and Lord’s Prayer only as “religious” in nature.

WorldNetDaily.com reports:

That according to California pastor and researcher Todd DuBord who says he was stunned on a recent tour of the historic town when “our guide responded to our inquiry by saying that she was ‘unable to speak about the plaques. We are only allowed to say they are religious plaques....’”

Because of the removal of Christianity from the history of Jamestown, Vision Forum has launched plans for a full series of events to celebrate the arrival of the settlers. The Jamestown Quadricentennial: A Celebration of America’s Providential History will be centered around events planned for June 11-16.

Those events are including the settlers’ Christian heritage, because Vision Forum President Doug Phillips said the war over the accuracy of the historical presentations “is one of the most significant battles of our day.”

“It is the battle for our history,” he said.

“Jamestown’s Christian legacy of law and liberty is significant,” Phillips told WND. “The vision for settlement at Jamestown was first communicated by a British cartographer and preacher named Richard Hakluyt who hoped the Virginia settlement would be a beacon for religious liberty. The Virginia Charter for 1606, both empowering and governing the Jamestown settlement, was expressly rooted in the Great Commission of Holy Scripture.”

He said the law system on which the colony was governed incorporated a millennia-long, Christian common law tradition.”

“The Jamestown settlers brought with them the Holy Scriptures and were the first to establish its enduring legacy of its presence in North America. Jamestown gave us our first Protestant house of worship, our first Christian conversions and baptisms and our first ‘interracial’ marriages based on the Christian faith. Jamestown also gave us a vision of republican representative government which was understood to find its origins in the Old Testament of Holy Scripture,” Phillips said.
