Often we hear, "America is based on Biblical principles." But what
are those principles and how do they work? SELF-EVIDENT TRUTHS is
an analysis of the ideas and principles that formed the basis of
the American philosophy of government and founding documents. It
traces their source in the Bible, their development through
history, their codification in the American founding documents and
their application to issues today SELF-EVIDENT TRUTHS studies the
WHYs of the American philosophy of government as the basic context
for the constitutional mechanics. SELF-EVIDENT TRUTHS is written in
simple terms to be suited for American civics and government
classes. These ideas produced a people who were free but not in
danger of anarchy and orderly but not because of civil force
controlling them. They were at peace with one another and their
unity and integrity were the engine of a prosperity that could
ultimately be realized by anyone in the society. The civil
structure was designed to protect this freedom. To the extent that
the American people have stuck closely to these ideals, freedom and
prosperity have bloomed. But whenever the people have drifted away
from them, the nation has declined. SELF-EVIDENT TRUTHS must be
studied and understood, then implemented personally by individuals
across the society in order for liberty to thrive. Bill Burtness,
MSEE 1973, has been Visiting Professor of American Philosophy of
Government at the University of Pristina, Political Science
faculty, Pristina, Kosovo, since 2004. He has his Master's degree
from the University of Illinois, Urbana, Illinois, USA. Prof.
Burtness has taught at University of the Nations campuses
internationally since 1980 and has been resource instructor at the
University of the Nations School of Government and International
Studies in Lausanne, Switzerland. He teaches extensively on the
foundations of sustainable freedom worldwide.
