““Liberty yes - but equality for all men? The end of all distinctions of social class? Such thinking smacked of anarchy, and of the worst abuses of liberty. In her view purpose of American Rev was to change government not society. ...unless mankind were universally enlightened which never can be, they are unfit for freedom nor do I believe that our Creator designed it for them.
