There is a root of suspicion in all of us–about the understanding and origin of our history. Being a skeptic myself, I can no longer categorize the Revolutionary era people as rebellious; rather a people who were undeterred from doing that which is good, moral, right and just in the face of tyranny.
If our Republic be ripped from it’s origin of PROVIDENTIAL UNDERSTANDING, we will meddle with history to make sense of the providence–meanwhile undermining God–and seeking to establish ourselves, vilify history and God-fearing people; all in order to explain the miracle of this nation to a world that refuses to acknowledge the goodness of God and his inscrutable ways.
I BELIEVE IN “AMERICAN EXCEPTIONALISM” BECAUSE OF IT’S FOUNDING PRINCIPLES AND HISTORY–UNDER GOD.
