How did enlightment ideas produced have enduring effects on political institution including religion challenge

Answer 1

hmmm, good question!

Let's see what the ideas of the enlightenment are:

Equality: All men are created equal.

Social Contract Theory: The government rules by consent of the people.

The purpose of government is to secure Life, Liberty, and Property of people. (changed to Pursuit of Happiness by Thomas Jefferson, though essentially means the same thing)

Separation of Church and State: A neccesary wall between the two insures religious freedom for all.

The Enlightenment espoused democracy, equality, capitalism, science, and secularism.

The Founding Fathers were inspired by the ideals of the Enlightenment. Our great nation was bourne of the Enlightenment, the world's first modern democracy.

Some Americans, however, fail to recognize this point. They falsely claim that America was founded primarily upon Christian ideals. To justify this, they use any quote they can find from the Founding Father's where they invoke God and deliberatly ignore the vast body of Enlightenment works that were in fact the actual basis for our Constitution.
