John Birch Society

The John Birch Society is an organization founded in 1958. Its goal is to spread the idea that the government and other public institutions should follow the teachings of the Bible. They also stand for limited government, and anti-communism. They were named after an American soldier, John Birch, who was killed by Chinese communists in 1945. The group believes in the importance of individuals and families, rather than government control and they think that people should live by strong moral values and traditional American values.
