the great awakening
The Great Awakening, a religious revival movement in the 18th century, had a significant influence on the philosophy of government expressed in the Declaration of Independence. It emphasized individual beliefs, personal convictions, and the idea of religious freedom, which aligned with the concept of individual rights and liberty expressed in the Declaration. The Great Awakening helped shape the idea that governments should respect these individual rights and that people have the right to overthrow a government that infringes upon them, as stated in the Declaration of Independence.

The American colonists' view of government was shaped by both the Enlightenment and the powerful influence of "The Great Awakening". The Enlightenment strongly influenced the founding generation to value the use of reason in this life. "The Great Awakening" ensured that respect for and reference to God would also influence the founders. Both reason and religion are in fact evidently at work (though in different ways) throughout the founding documents of, and the original view of government in, America.
