Write an essay relating the political thoughts in the Declaration of Independence to the Bible. From an encyclopedia, the internet, or other

reference, read the secondparagraph of the D of I. Copy each phrase that you think is part of Western political thought (for example, “all men are

created equal.”) In an essay of 300 words, explain how each of these ideas is related to Biblical teaching. Proper documentation includes both

parentheticals citations within the body of your report anytime you summarize or quote a source, as well as a works cited page.
