General / From where do you derive your liberty?
« on: December 25, 2005, 02:00:39 AM »
I was rather surprised by the number of atheist on this board, simply because I have always believed, as our founders did, that our rights were derived from our Creator. Many of our founding documents, especially the Declaration of Independence hinge on the fact that there is a supreme Being, a Creator, God. If you are atheist or agnostic, from where do you derive your rights? Government can only take them away. Do we earn rights through our evolutionary supremacy?
My motive of asking this question is simply for my own enlightenment. This will probably end up spawning a debate, but that is not intended by me.
