I keep wanting to delve into the fact that the American Revolution was widely known as the Presbyterian Revolution in England, even by King George. But, that opportunity just hasn’t arisen. It’ll come, though, lol.

At this point, I usually point out the New England Primer - whereby the founding fathers and others at that time learned to read and write - included a lot of Protestant theology.

The influence can also be seen in the Primary Source Documents.

Thank you for the links, it may turn out to be very useful elsewhere. There are a couple of outdated ones on the Primary Source Documents page though.
