| 15
November: John Witherspoon - John Witherspoon was born in 1723 in Yester
manse near Haddington, perhaps a descendant of John Knox. He was prominent in
the controversies of his day, taking the evangelical position. He was the hand
behind the anonymous satire, Ecclesiastical Characteristics, which set the
'moderates' in the Church of Scotland about their ears and was the talk of the
clubs, coffee houses and presbyteries of the time. In 1768 he was appointed
president of what is now Princeton Seminary where he was innovative in both
teaching methods and in the content of his courses in philosophy and politics
– his students containing one future US president, 10 cabinet ministers,
12 state governors, 60 congressmen and three Supreme Court justices. Ultimately
he entered politics himself and was the only minister to sign the American
Declaration of Independence. He died in 1794. This is also United Nations Day. |
