Re-affirming Self-Evident Truths on Independence Day - 2024

As we celebrate our nation’s 248th birthday, true citizens of the United States, genuine Americans, may want to re-assess whether they still hold onto the self-evident truths that the Founders grasped in their time when they laid the foundation of the nation upon self-evident truths proclaimed in the Declaration of Independence. Today’s lack of clarity concerning what Americans truly believe may be a central reason that America is facing an existential crisis in 2024. If citizens no longer believe in obvious truths, which Jefferson originally declared sacred and divine, there is little sense of the original purpose for the nation’s continued existence.
