Quoting: Anonymous Coward 81858228 They were stating a fact - a universal truth that extended to every person. Social contracts can be terminated, but universal truths are everlasting. I guess you are OK letting the Government decide what you can and cannot do. |

A king who says there is no universal purpose has no reason or order to offer anyone. At best, he becomes a cult of personality. 230 here, but 0 there. |

I guess you are OK letting the Government decide what you can and cannot do. I deal in reality. No need for an overabundance of hyperbolic moral rhetoric. People have their "God-given unalienable rights" taken from them each and every single day. That's the way the world actually works. Hence the usage of a social contract to outline the constructs of personal liberty. |

Hence the usage of a social contract to outline the constructs of personal liberty. What is the basis of social contracts? And when social feelings and opinions change, these social contracts must be dissolved and re-written. This is a foundation of failure. Absolute truths exist - and most likely are the enemy of 'social contracts' because social contracts are the summation of the 'feelings' of the masses. 20 years ago homosexuals were "born that way" and you shouldn't say anything against them because they can't help how they were born!!! That was the social construct of the day. Now - everyone acknowledges the truth, that homosexuals CHOOSE this lifestyle. Sin in the world is expanding because the masses have chosen to turn away from GOD in favor of their selfish lusts and desires. Society is failing at record speed. If you cannot acknowledge that, you are willfully blind. |

Capitol punishment is the removal of the right to life. Imprisonment is the loss of liberty. Many laws impede the pursuit of happiness. Most of those laws were pushed by people who believed in God, and took it upon themselves to enforce Gods rules as they saw them. To ensure people pursued happiness in a moral way they saw fit. So you see even following God with a government is a sure fire way to ensure there are no inalienable rights. The older a nation gets, the more laws it has time to create, and the fewer rights the citizen has. It is not good, evil, has nothing to do with God or Satan, it is just how people work. Remember in the Bible God telling his people they should not have a king or a judge, this is why.... |
