Is this a quiz? May I play? "Alter or abolish" is from the Declaration of Independence. A nice relic, but not law. The rough draft is here: http://www.ushistory.org/declaration/document/rough.htm

Same place it's deemed in law that rights are granted by the Creator. The basis of standing and capacity to overturn a 'lawful' monarch, and 'institute' a lawful government- needing, of course, a Constitution, and happily containing a Bill of Rights. Chas

The legal document asserting the standing and capacity to overturn a 'lawful' monarch and a notice of intent to do so. It establishes the institution of a lawful government, which government needs a Constitution granting power to make authoritative law. So the question is not whether the endowment is 'law', but what was deemed for legalistic purposes necessary to even institute a system of laws. Of course, to some degree they incorporated pre-existing law; civil, common, Admiralty, ecclesiastical, criminal,....... Chas

the people endowed with the Rights granted by the Creator, to form a government based on the right to self-govern, and not some inherited prerogative.

Asserting the authority, to the World Court and the Judge of the World, to form a body which could self-govern; make and enforce law- The authority and legal standing of the Declaration of Independence is a necessary precursor authority to even the idea of instituting 'law' without a King or hereditary nobility vetted by the State Church of Rome.

It was a list of grievances against one king george.
And not to have to pick another monarch from the approved list, or stand in rebellion to a lawful government, or defer to a foreign power for approval. Think of it as a statement of standing and capacity, which defines the jurisdiction and cites precedent/authority by deeming it a 'self-evident truth' for evidentiary purposes. to the World Court and the Judge of the World,
How odd it is then, that we have come to a point where the only "judges" which matter under the law are secular judges. No imaginary judges have any power under the law.
We're no longer asserting our independent right to form a legitimate government which can institute a legal system. Neat, hunh?
Our government is based on the Constitution, not on the DoI.
The authority to *form* that government is the function of the DoI. The authority and legal standing of the Declaration of Independence is a necessary precursor authority to even the idea of instituting 'law' without a King or hereditary nobility vetted by the State Church of Rome. ka-ching! Chas

How do we secure these rights?
first, one has to justify that they are not granted by man, a permission, caprice or whimsey of the monarch, but are eternal- deemed; we 'hold' that these truths are 'self-evident (burden of proof shifts to disproving it in 'legal' contexts- you see the Court's treatment of the solipsistic suits of the 60's or so; God as Defendant, God as Witness- all that.
Governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.
As opposed to the divine right of kings as vetted by the roman church. That authority could be delegated to a line of nobility, who ruled by class of blood. On the other hand, the Creator endowed all men with these self-evident rights, and the result was a legitimate government, not a rebellion, insurrection or revolt against lawful authority.
From the consent of the governed, not some mystical, imaginary pipe dream.
The honoring of which is immaterial as hell to you- you're welcome not to believe in anything you care to- the vast majority of the entire history of the scope of human experience disagrees with you, and thinks you're silly for affecting that position notwithstanding.
The Colonial view of the common law recognized not women's sufferage or desegregation.
Only because *all* people were relegated to their class by their birth status. A queen was worth any number of common men- foreigners were worth less yet. Everything was segregated- by all sorts of standards, sometimes racial, sometimes not. The common law was not that of the Court- and it was custom and practice amongst subjects to a monarch. Chas

Jeremiah is OT. "Jeremiah" goes on to say: 29:17 Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Behold, I will send upon them the sword, the famine, and the pestilence, and will make them like vile figs, that cannot be eaten, they are so evil. 29:18 And I will persecute them with the sword, with the famine, and with the pestilence, and will deliver them to be removed to all the kingdoms of the earth, to be a curse, and an astonishment, and an hissing, and a reproach, among all the nations whither I have driven them: 29:19 Because they have not hearkened to my words, saith the LORD, which I sent unto them by my servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them; but ye would not hear, saith the LORD. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Sort of redefines for us justice and tolerance, eh?

Not for our Teddi. Heathen deserve all the misery they get, because Ted's god is a just god, but his brother-in-law doesn't deserve to be incarcerated for the alleged murder of his illegitimate four-year-old daughter? If your god is a just god, Ted, your brother-in-law deserves his fate. Period.

Jews have never been known for being either inclusive or concerned much with 'justice' outside their group- 'henocentrism', I think they call it. Much of what Yeshua had to say was about the multi-generational bloodfeuds and rivalries between the Tribes, much less with the non-Israelites. The tribes under Judah were even moreso than the Israelites per se. Chas

Kinda- more 'tribal' and exclusive than simple ethnocentrism. The jewish tribes of the Israelites were/are even more insular than the Israelites as a whole, and still.

You don't get "saved," period. Christianity is a fraud. But I had to learn it the hard way -- by getting mired in (and finally, escaping) the cult. I guess that Jesus must have been too busy sodomizing young boys on the golf course that day, as he obviously wasn't available.

Which is why we are celebrating *THE FIRST ANNIVERSARY* of Cam Brown's incarceration today, right? If he absolutely responds to faith, then it is self-evident that *YOU* didn't have enough to get His attention. ;)

Just a sufficient quantum of credible evidence. For good or ill, what Jesus actually said is lost in the mists of antiquity, and he's too busy being dead to tell us anything of consequence today. After all, if he were alive and could prove it, I'd imagine that Carol and Moe and me (and possibly, even Ted!) would certainly listen intently to what he had to say.
Or do you think there's a 4000 year old conspiracy to deceive you into singing out loud and eating pie?
Naaahhh, with a lot of Christian preachers, it's more about having sex with young children.

Because they have not hearkened to the Word of the Lord. Would that include Ken Smith? And Carol Lee Smith? This is NOT His will for you, because as He says in verse 11, He has thoughts of peace for you, and not of evil. So you might as well get with the program, and receive Jesus Christ as your Saviour, so that you might avail yourself of His Peace. Otherwise, verses 17 and 18 are for you, when the terrible day of the Lord comes.
There are many, many religious people on this planet who think you are wrong and that their religion is correct. I am an equal opportunity doubter. Your claims are no more credible than theirs.

TeddiBeer's our resident stark, raving Osama-class religious lunatic. Kind of like Steve Winter, minus the personality. He used to leave the really weird religious rants to his mentor Doug Gilliland, but he's had to take up the slack in recent months. :)
