Was America’s founding really great? Were our founders truly exceptional or was our project simply an outgrowth of the Enlightenment? In today’s episode Dr. Robert Reilly weighs in on these questions.

Dr. Robert Reilly is the celebrated author of “America on Trial”—a book that looks at the American founding with a critical eye. This book addresses many of the criticisms of the American experiment, specifically those raised by conservatives and Catholics. Ultimately, Dr. Reilly highlights the truly exceptional nature of our founding and its ancient and medieval roots. In today’s episode, Dr Reilly revisits some of these criticisms and addresses in detail the common and mistaken belief that the founding of America was simply an Enlightenment project like the French Revolution. With a more accurate understanding of our founding just 250 years ago, Dr. Reilly hopes to encourage greater patriotism and respect for our founders.
