This is not a trivial article. It is well researched and very well written until it hits the finale.
To say something like this without blushing:
"The Restoration may have had its glories, but a larger glory belongs to those who groped, for a time, toward something freer and better, and who made us, in particular—Americans, whose Founding Fathers, from Roger Williams to the Quakers, leaped intellectually right out of the English crucible—what we spiritually remain."
... is quite breathtaking.
Get a grip.
