Clearly the MSDNC dingbat does not know the history of our Free Republic.

[brownsfan]

For communists like those at MSNBC, government is their god.

[CommerceComet]

Well, count me in as a Christian nationalist then.

[mikelets456]

Communists believe their rights are granted only by the government they choose and support.

I’m so sick of all these stupid azz lies——sadly, this is just the beginning.

[oldtech]

If I relied on anything from MSNBC, I’d be as ignorant as they prove to be.

[bray]

Communists hate God.

[plain talk]

Even if you are an atheist your rights do not come from Congress. The Bill of Rights restricts government not men.

[mikelets456]

I guess all the politicians (especially Democrats) that took an oath to uphold the Constitution are also “Christian nationalists” or they’re liars....

[FreeReign]

Inalienable rights comes from politicians?? These people are nuts.

[GSWarrior]

These people are allergic to anything Christian.

[TornadoAlley3]

That’s why it’s so easy for libs to take your God given rights away. Remember Obama said the Constitution was faulty because it said what the government could not do. Democrats want to change it.

I guess all the politicians (especially Democrats) that took an oath to uphold the Constitution are also “Christian nationalists” or they’re liars....

Well, technically...the line, "...are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights..." comes from the Declaration of Independence.

But your point is correct.

[TornadoAlley3]

True. You don’t have to be Christian to agree with inherit rights.

[Empire_of_Liberty]

Well said.

I suppose it was our mistake to let leadership swear an oath to a God they do not believe in. The Constitution has few defenders.

[CatOwner]

Remember when being called a Christian was a good thing for a majority of Americans? Thanks to the brainwashing, this is no longer the case.

Blackstone codified the bedrock of Western political thought. https://www.allaboutphilosophy.org/natural-law-and-sir-william-blackstone-faq.htm

Without natural law as a bedrock any law is meaningless.

[bk1000]

They are so narcissistic they really think they bestow rights onto us.

F them. Good and hard.

[drwoof]

Yep. The concept that our Rights as human beings have been endowed by a Creator cannot be accepted by people who reject the premise of a Supreme Being. Our founders presumed a Christian nation, with citizens maintaining an awareness of government’s place below God and the inalienable rights He confers upon us as individuals.

"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, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. --That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness."

[EnderWiggin1970]

Guilty.
