A HOLY EXPERIMENT II: The Resurrection of the Spirit of America

A Holy Experiment II targets the foundation of the American spirit and seeks its resurrection and implementation in today's America. America was based on very clear, very concise spiritual principles that still compel humanity throughout the world, even with all the perceived negative aspects of the American society. These principles origins now seem nebulous only because we have forgotten the hows and whys of their being established. William Penn's founding of Pennsylvania in the late 1600s created a new, radical society based on spiritual values that included for the first time religious liberty, the right to a trial by jury of one's peers, and self-government and taxation only through representation ... the very heart of the American system. Penn's principles were incorporated into the Bill of Rights in the U.S. Constitution ...113 years later! Termed a holy experiment, his theories and applications turned into an experiment that saw little or no violence or war, and lasted for over 73 years. In getting in touch with America's spiritual roots, A Holy Experiment II then offers contemporary ways to regenerate the Divine Spark that helped create this country. These principles intriguingly correlate with those of Penn and his Quaker tenets which so influenced this country's foundation.
