    THE FEDERALIST PAPERS #72, "The Duration in Office and Re-Eligibility of the Executive Considered," by Alexander Hamilton

    THE FEDERALIST PAPERS #72, "The Duration in Office and Re-Eligibility of the Executive Considered," by Alexander Hamilton

    Authored by Alexander Hamilton, James Madison and John Jay to appear anonymously in New York papers under the pseudonym ”Publius” in 1787 and 1788, the Federalist Papers aimed to rally public support for the proposed Constitution of the United States. As such, it is one of the most important sources for understanding the original intent of the US Constitution by those who participated in its construction.

    In Federalist number one Alexander Hamilton sets forth the ambition of arguing the following positions in favor of the adoption of the Constitution:

    ”I propose, in a series of papers, to discuss the following interesting particulars:

    THE UTILITY OF THE UNION TO YOUR POLITICAL PROSPERITY

    THE INSUFFICIENCY OF THE PRESENT CONFEDERATION TO PRESERVE THAT UNION

    THE NECESSITY OF A GOVERNMENT AT LEAST EQUALLY ENERGETIC WITH THE ONE PROPOSED, TO THE ATTAINMENT OF THIS OBJECT

    THE CONFORMITY OF THE PROPOSED CONSTITUTION TO THE TRUE PRINCIPLES OF REPUBLICAN GOVERNMENT

    ITS ANALOGY TO YOUR OWN STATE CONSTITUTION and lastly,

    THE ADDITIONAL SECURITY WHICH ITS ADOPTION WILL AFFORD TO THE PRESERVATION OF THAT SPECIES OF GOVERNMENT, TO LIBERTY, AND TO PROPERTY.”

    Articles and essays written by Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and John Jay under the collective pseudonym ”Publius” to promote the ratification of the Constitution of the United States.

    Zechariah, Chapter 4

    Zechariah, Chapter 4

    In view of the Christian Atheist series on Malachi and the post-exilic prophets, we have decided to post the books of Haggai, Zechariah and Malachi (and then Ezekiel) for our listeners. Again, the version is American Standard Version, to avoid copyright infringement. We pray that God blesses His word to your heart. He who has ears to hear, let him hear!

    ROBINSON CRUSOE by Daniel Defoe, Chapter 19a

    ROBINSON CRUSOE by Daniel Defoe, Chapter 19a

    As an elementary school student, I remember reading for the first time Defoe’s Robinson Crusoe. I was captivated by Crusoe’s solitary ingenuity on the island, his trips back and forth to the foundered ship, his reconstruction of civilized life from the fundaments. It awakened in me a lifetime love of survival narratives, and a fascination with survival strategies and skills. If today I can forage for wild foods, start a bow-drill fire, build a deadfall, construct a survival shelter and know a great deal more about our natural environment than most people do, it is in no small part a result of reading this book, which has been called the first English novel. It well-rewards the time spent in its reading. Enjoy!
