As knights we are Catholic Christian Gentlemen who believe in God and country, the Holy Catholic Church and in America.  We are The Fourth Degree, the Degree that represents patriotism.  The Fourth Degree   is the most visible part of the Knights of Columbus. We are proud to stand up for America and pledge to show our patriotism, WE pledge to defend our Country,  our Church,  and the born and the unborn.    Are you REALLY proud to be an American? Why not show it.  There's the Tea Party out on the streets carrying their signs. There is the Republican party making there pledges and last but not least there are the Democrats saying Yes they can.  But who really represents who we are?
