S5E24: Resolving Yesterday's Question into an Aspirational Declaration for Future Generations
About this episode
David Fowler discusses the influence of enlightenment and Christian theology on the Declaration of Independence and presents a new version for future generations.
Today David gives his answer to whether the following statement in the Declaration of Independence is more influenced by enlightenment hubris than sound Christian theology: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights." The difference between the one and the other is manifest in a new version he's authored and would encourage future generations to bring to fruition.
