He addresses Classical Republicanism as expressed by Thomas Jefferson in comparison to Alexander Hamilton's more Liberal Republicanism.<BR/><BR/>Apparently, Jeffereson's ideas were largely framed by his agrarian view of life on the farm; whereas, Hamilton was more heavily influenced by city life that was beginning.<BR/>.<BR/>Cities were often associated with immorality whereas farm life was pristine in comparison. It is easy to see that a political as well as religious dichotomy was developing over the differences and it has continued to grow even though many of the issues have changed.<BR/>.Phil Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06756814849309388483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1237087217187172116.post-47775062337291320832008-09-11T16:49:00.000-06:002008-09-11T16:49:00.000-06:00Jon, The Rev.

If I'm not mistaken, Rev. Caner as an orthodox Anglican wrote letters to England complaining of the rank heterodoxy of New England's churches - - objecting in particular to their leanings to Unitarianism. Come the Revolution and the orthodox Rev. Caner, as a Tory Loyalist, had to pack up his bags and flee Boston. With King's Chapel thus in the Patriots' hands, it too embraced New England's prevailing heterodoxy - - and was by 1785 emphatically Unitarian, under the leadership of Rev. James Freeman. <BR/><BR/>EricEric Alan Isaacsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14144268111747323445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1237087217187172116.post-6075524692241273712008-09-11T15:32:00.000-06:002008-09-11T15:32:00.000-06:00Zuckert.<A HREF="http://www.firstthings.com/article.php3?id_article=3510" REL="nofollow">Zuckert.</A>Tom Van Dykehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07121072404143877596noreply@blogger.com
