By Phil Lawler, Catholic Culture - Only a few pages into The Making of the American Mind, I paused in my reading and looked at the Index. The way Matthew Spalding introduced his subject (the book is subtitled “The Story of our Declaration of Independence”) gave me the sense that this would not be the standard boilerplate treatment, interpreting the Declaration as the thought of John Locke, filtered through the pen of Thomas Jefferson.

Do I give a little bit more to my tithe so that I can get more back on my tax refund or because my diocese can fund our local soup kitchen?... The answers to these questions, of course, are deeply personal. They are also complex, paradoxical, even.
