One needs to deeply understand the era of 1700 to 1800.

Not US history, European. That was the beginnings of equality.

Here I urge the study of the lives and works of 2 musicians, W. Mozart, and Robert Burns.

From a society where privilege and class ensured that even a musician was not allowed to sit at the table with society, to one where they became the equal of others, the beginnings of the movement towards equality were so ingrained in one organization that many countries banned the assembly of men of all classes, who met behind closed door, and who's purpose it to ensure the equality of all men, all religions, and all people.

Many men who made up part of this group were founders of the USA, and much of the wording was borrowed from that group.

The age of enlightenment. Where the church started to lose it's hold on education, and could no longer keep the populace from learning the liberal arts and sciences.
