American Exceptionalism - It's Your Heritage
History and religion
"We will either preserve for our children this, the last best hope of man on earth or we will sentence them to take the first steps into a thousand years of darkness. That is because our constitution and our civil society are exceptional. There is no other nation that has so dutifully carried the torch of liberty into the modern world. If we surrender now, who will take our place?"--Ronald Reagan. This class will be the study of American history coupled with the importance of religion in American life. The required readings are: "Faiths of the Founding Fathers" by David L. Holmes and a set of essays on the Internet that will be announced in class.
Facilitator: John Cameron.
Class meets Mondays, January 26 - March 2, and is for those over 50.
