What is the symbology of yanking those statues down in terms of the Civil religion
Attempted to dictate the question (See Video for actual instructions)
Want you answer two questions the first is with your sense of the American Civil religion writ large you can answer this in two ways answer it by tying ideas in the Bella Article 2 language in the Declaration of Independence so you can talk about how they use Providence and how they refer to natural rights in what that means in terms of the structure of American Civil religion as Bella lays it out or you can talk about the idea as to whether its a good thing or not (is it helpful). Do you buy his argument that he’s writing in his 17 page piece here.
either show how the Declaration of Independence is a simple religious document or tackle whether or not you believe American Civil religion as Bella has constructed it actually exists and know it’s a good thing that that it does
The second part I want you to take a present day look at that idea of civil religion I want you to assess something like statues that are being pulled down around the country now I’m not talking about the Confederate statues. The statues of the founders; Thomas Jefferson I think the statue was pulled down Christopher Columbus is not a Founder but he’s part of the American mythology he did founded American 14th October for tonight like we we know that we know the myth I believe they just pulled down the statue of his in Baltimore. Think about the statues of Founders or people that are key to the American mythology being toppled or think about things like soccer players across the country now or Colin Kaepernick two years ago kneeling during the national anthem and intersect those things with the arguments Bella makes in his piece.
What does it when Colin Kaepernick takes knee for the national anthem what does the reception to that kneeling why was it the way it is given what Bella’s argument here is in the Americas the American Civil religion in those statues being toppled down and what does that mean in the context of Bella’s Civil Religion, not just is that good or bad but like what is the symbology of yanking those statues down in terms of the Civil religion not in term of the protests are not in terms of civil religion and its symbols liturgy its rituals at least when no statues were toppled what does that say about…….
