------------------------------
Hillsdale College is an independent institution of higher learning founded in 1844 by men and women “grateful to God for the inestimable blessings” resulting from civil and religious liberty and “believing that the diffusion of learning is essential to the perpetuity of these blessings.” It pursues the stated object of the founders: “to furnish all persons who wish, irrespective of nation, color, or sex, a literary, scientific, [and] theological education” outstanding among American colleges “and to combine with this such moral and social instruction as will best develop the minds and improve the hearts of its pupils.” As a nonsectarian Christian institution, Hillsdale College maintains “by precept and example” the immemorial teachings and practices of the Christian faith.
The College also considers itself a trustee of our Western philosophical and theological inheritance tracing to Athens and Jerusalem, a heritage finding its clearest expression in the American experiment of self-government under law.
By training the young in the liberal arts, Hillsdale College prepares students to become leaders worthy of that legacy. By encouraging the scholarship of its faculty, it contributes to the preservation of that legacy for future generations. By publicly defending that legacy, it enlists the aid of other friends of free civilization and thus secures the conditions of its own survival and independence.

Thank you Dr. Arnn! As a child I was so appalled when I learned of Hitler's extermination of the Jewish people (and others). So much so, that I selected that as the topic of my English semester paper. I was raised, and still am, Christian. 60 years old now, and I can't believe we are seeing this hatred again - to any person or group of people. It is so true that those who don't learn from history are doomed to repeat it.

You are embarking soon a beautiful journey. I have been reading Churchill for 4 years and I will tell you that his "The World Crises" is stunning. (Suggest the Bloomsbury edition, readily available).

Sir Martin Gilbert's prose & probing insight is impeccable in the annals of historical literature.

Im 71. Born and raised all over the World. History has taken a back seat and opinion is the final argument. As for Jews and Israel, I'm an actual, real Christian and support the Jews and Israel 100%. I could be a Zionist. Many of my Jewish friends have called me a righteous person.
