Why do “We hold these truths to be self-evident.” Greco-Roman society did not; Extremists do not. They hold to the “Survival of the fittest.” We hold these truths because they are the Christian Truth. Modernity views Christians as unenlightened. When Secular Humanists trace their professions and beliefs, they are awash in a Catholic ‘See’. Their blinders hide the fact that they are enlightened by Christian beliefs. History enlightens us on the Christian impact on society, human rights, medicine, and education.
