New DiscoursesJohn Adams's 1765 Defense of Religious and Political LibertyThe New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Ep. 220
In 1765, Great Britain had foolishly decided to continue escalating its attempts to recover the cost of the French and Indian War from its American Colonists by passing the infamous and odious Stamp Act upon the colonies, who famously were not represented in the Parliament that would tax them.

We discuss the “pre-history” of the Revolution from English constitutionalism and the Glorious Revolution of a century before, the role each man played in creating American constitutionalism, why the Declaration was written the way it was, and why it is “law.” Among many other issues.
