Two and a half centuries ago, 56 men, guided by faith in God’s providence, helped redirect the path of human history.
When they signed the Declaration of Independence, they did more than declare that the 13 American colonies would no longer live under the tyranny of King George III. They affirmed the foundation of self-government and proclaimed a principle no nation had so plainly embraced before: that all men are created equal, endowed by their Creator with unalienable rights, including Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.
This week at RedState, we are marking the 250th anniversary of the greatest nation on earth by honoring the courage and resolve of the Founding Fathers, along with every generation that has defended their vision and protected our freedom. We are also renewing our commitment to the founding belief that our rights come from God, not government, and that elected officials are meant to serve We the People.
At a time when destructive forces still seek to weaken our republic and replace it with the failed promises of socialism and communism, we are choosing to celebrate the best of America and the character of her people.
