>>“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights”

Was held to establish that those rights are not granted by government but by the Creator. I know the Leftist pukes deny he exists, but that changes nothing.

The courts have no authority on those issues.<<

As the basis for the USC and the foundation document of the USA, the DOI is a critical document, arguably one of the most important of all human history.

But I see we agree you can’t bring it into a legal argument, except as a preamble to a legal argument when arguing “the spirit” of a law, legislation, and/or the USC itself.

I’m not a lawyer. But I can read and understand what was written.

“unalienable Rights”

Not granted by Government at all, but not subject to removal by government.
