By saying that the rights we enjoy are not endowed by a Creator is an attempt to erase the first two paragraphs of the D of I.

If the Declaration of Independence had simply said: "Hey, England, go stuff it! We're through with you guys!" we'd still have the same rights.

Maybe. They did it more diplomatically than throwing a stone through King George's kitchen window.

But the fact of history is that it did happen that way.
