The founders left a message. It has been standing in the open ever since.

Can America function as a non-religious society?

Washington D.C. tour guide and author Tim Schmig believes that question has already been answered in stone.

Throughout the monuments, buildings, and memorials of the nation's capital are countless inscriptions and references pointing to the Bible, to God, and to the Judeo-Christian principles that shaped American government. Most visitors walk right past them. The Supreme Court, where Moses holds the Ten Commandments above the doors. The Washington Monument, with the words Laus Deo, Praise be to God, inscribed at its peak.

Our forefathers carved their answer into this city. Stories in Stones: Hidden in Plain Sight takes viewers on a tour of Washington D.C. to find the evidence that has never been erased. It has only been hidden in plain sight.

"When we remove God from our national conscience, what becomes the source of rights?"
