Creationism, the American Founding, and Individual Rights

About this episode

The episode discusses the connection between creationism and the American Founding, emphasizing the foundation of individual rights.

The Declaration famously says that we are “endowed by our Creator with certain inalienable rights.”... The American Founding was a creationist event, and precisely because it was a creationist event, we have enjoyed a truly solid foundation for the blessings of liberty.
