Description: Why did our Framers and early statesmen choose Christianity? Perhaps the best answer was provided by Dewitt Clinton, the Framer who introduced the Twelfth Amendment. He explained: "Christianity may be contemplated in two important aspects: first, in reference to its influence on this world, and secondly, in its reference to our destiny in the world to come." Today, the debate over Christianity in public life has been limited primarily to discussions about "our destiny in the world to come"; it is time that we rediscover the impact of Christianity's "influence on this world." Learn what our Framers believed to be the practical benefits of Christianity upon civil society and why these benefits are still needed today.

Why is history important?

“A nation which does not remember what it was yesterday, does not know what it is today, nor what it is trying to do. We are trying to do a futile thing if we do not know where we have come from, or what we have been about.”
- President Woodrow Wilson, 1913

“History, by apprising them [the citizens], of the past will enable them to judge of the future; it will avail them of the experience of other times and other nations; it will qualify them as judges of the actions and designs of men;”
- President Thomas Jefferson, 1784
