“The Constitution and Religion as a Public Good”
Featuring Dr. Susan Hanssen, Professor of History at the University of Dallas.
Most discussions about the role of religion in the American Founding focus on the constitutional guarantees for religious freedom and the prohibition of an established church. Dr. Hanssen argues that this leaves out something equally important, the belief held by almost everyone at the time that a republic had to be virtuous in order to survive, and that virtue depended on religion. George Washington's notion of religion as a public good will be examined as an illustration of this widespread conviction.
