Declaration of Independence

Start a tradition. Read the Declaration of Independence this year, and on each anniversary. Read it with your kids, your families, your friends. And think about what it means for a small group to have taken a stand for freedom, liberty, and the inalienable rights of all men. Encourage your friends and neighbors to do the same, and perhaps eventually cowardice and treachery will have no place remaining in which to hide, for fallacy and equivocation wither under the bright light of the truth. Ask from whence these truths come, remember those who have stood and sacrificed that they may persist, and reflect upon their paramount importance. For without these few simple truths, you have nothing and no claim to anything. Happy Independence Day.
