4. Religion and the Renaissance

Joseph Loconte, in an article from the Weekly Standard, talks about the religious side of the Renaissance period. Known for rampant individualism, the Renaissance period often gets negative attention from conservatives. However, Loconte shows the religious side of this period. It is important for Midwestern Conservatives to have a firm understanding of history and get the full picture of this momentous period of life. PAI understands the importance of history on modern life and strives to provide its readers with a better understanding of how western civilization came to be.
