You're not gonna believe this. Check out this list of radical Christian nationalists who believe inalienable human rights are endowed on them by some sort of higher power, a Creator, or something like that, and not by the federal government.

I believe my rights are from God Himself, not from any imperfect human governing institution.

Of course our rights are pre-existing and inalienable. The very fact that one is human is your guarantee of human rights!

The Constitution does not “give” or “grant” you these rights, it is really just a piece of paper. Your rights are yours because you exist, as God created you! The Constitution limits what government can do regarding your rights. This is called “Natural Law”.

If government granted your rights, they could just as easily be taken away, as we know, as we witness leftist totalitarians attempt to take them from us.

If it weren’t for the belief that human rights came from God, we would still have slavery in the United States.

The light of liberty will flicker out if this current syndicate wins this fall. Maybe it’s already happened and we’re fooling ourselves.

If the Founders could somehow rise from the dead and walk into the Capitol, they’d be arrested and caged for being radical extremist.

Isn’t it remarkable how the decline of the United States, and the decline of God, travel on exactly the same path?

I find it Expected as well as Remarkable.

The first thing Communist gummits do is outlaw Christianity.

There is a popular song which has a line which strikes me as 'constitutionally incorrect' when it says "I won't forget the men who died and gave those rights to me."

I underssand one needs to keep a cadence and rhyme, but men died defending rights - not giving rights.

We are only as free as we make the effort to know why.

We only have rights that we are able to defend.

The government of the country has reached that point, they believe and feel that they are omnipotent, omniscient, and also infallible, they are the ones who decide what is good and what is bad and forgive whoever they want to forgive and punish whoever they want to punish; It is a mistake to say that America comes first......

Our rights being inalienable does not mean that they are not routinely abridged by our government.

The Constitution does not “give” or “grant” you these rights, it is really just a piece of paper. Your rights are yours because you exist, as God created you! The Constitution limits what government can do regarding your rights. This is called “Natural Law”.

The constitution limits what the government should do regarding individual rights. It requires a properly functioning court system to guarantee that constitutional rights are protected, and violations of the same are vindicated with sale, delay or denial Sadly, in the U.S., American citizens have no standing to be heard in court on the fundamental right to "Republican form of government" elected through free and fair elections, with the results publicly counted and witnessed. Other rights are dismissed with similar cleverness by the elite ruling class that thinks that our rights can all be finessed away with the right B.S.

If government granted your rights, they could just as easily be taken away, as we know, as we witness leftist totalitarians attempt to take them from us.

The government does not grant us our rights, but it does routinely take them away through an Administrative State that little resembles the government that our founders intended.
