Journey of Cross and Quill

What I perceived as an easy project has in fact turned out to be a Pandora’s box of research. I threw together my first paper in a matter of days as procrastination overtook me and my class deadline loomed. However, a simple idea has instead expressed itself as needing further development. There can be no easy explanation of Christianity’s influence on the American Constititution without first laying the foundation of biblical principles in law and government and recalling the great Christian thinkers of times past whose work heavily influenced the writers of America’s covenant. I forsee two distinctions: biblical principles inherent in the document itself and the foundation upon which it rests.
