Birth of Freedom :: Trailer

This trailer is for a new documentary being released by the Acton Institute. Birth of Freedom tells the story of how modern understandings of individual liberty were developed.

The American founders said that all men are created equal and are endowed with certain unalienable rights. That among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. They called this a self evident truth. 87 years later, Abraham Lincoln reaffirmed this idea on the Civil War battlefield of Gettysburg. And in 1963 these same words echoed from the steps of the Lincoln Memorial as Martin Luther King, Jr. urged America to fulfill the promise of its founding.

For the millions around the world who have never tasted liberty the question cries for an answer.

[JoshuaH688]

Freedom... it isn't about religion, but that doesn't mean that it doesn't start with religion. In many ways, theology wasn't just about God.

It was about humanity having the right to think about where he came from and where he is going, and to find higher reason.

Unfortunately, faith is almost a taboo in the modern age, and it shouldn't be. Athiest, Agnostic or religious, we should all take the time to respect the massive achievements in human socio-economics resultant of theology.

Absolutely compelling -- Another important piece of media from Acton and Coldwater -- It's time the truth is told without watered-down, pluralistic tendencies!
