Episode Synopsis


In this sweeping and sobering episode, R.J. Rushdoony dismantles the myth of the Renaissance as a rebirth of freedom, exposing instead how it marked the rise of statism, economic chaos, and the erosion of liberty. From the religious veneer of the Thirty Years’ War to Spain’s descent into tyranny through gold-fueled inflation, Rushdoony traces how Europe’s rejection of biblical foundations led to national ruin. With clarity and conviction, he shows that true freedom isn’t found in nationalism or internationalism—but in godly order rooted in Christ.
