Divining America: Religion in American History
Sunday, March 14
3:00 p.m.
Anne Blue Wills from Davidson College talks about "The Founding Fathers and American Civil Religion"
Main Library, 310 N. Tryon Street, Charlotte

Compared with many European nations, America seems strongly religious. How did the Founders weave religious involvement – across traditions – into our constitutional framework? Has that framework reinforced habits of thinking and believing that can be called a "national faith"? Anne Blue Wills from Davidson College talks about "The Founding Fathers and American Civil Religion."

Free to attend. Offered in partnership with the Charlotte Mecklenburg Library.
