:|The Declaration of Independence said
:|that "all men are created equal" and all of our personal rights come
:|from the belief that there is a power greater than government that
:|gives rights and freedom. In fact, that is the basis of all of our
:|rights, to ensure that the government cannot take away our God-given
:|rights. If the government were the source of rights, it could change
:|them without any reason for objection by the people. The only recorse
:|one has against a government takeover of the people is the belief that
:|the government is NOT the highest power.

:|What about Democracy...you say? What about people rule? Well, what if
:|the majority held a wrong belief like...slavery...or woman subjection?
:|If the majority held that belief and the government approved it, what
:|is the reason for rejecting the policy? The ONLY reason for rejection
:|is the belief that God had created us with certain rights which the
:|people...and the government...was not entitled to take away. Law and
:|legal defense is not based in statues but in rights. Therefore, all
:|lawyers should be religious.
