A nation may be said to consist of its territory, its people, and its laws. The territory is the only part which is of certain durability. Laws change, people die; the land remains. - Abraham Lincoln, Message to Congress, December 1, 1862.

[He Rides A White Horse]

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

........rights which our Creator Himself could only revoke.

....much to the chagrin of would be totalitarians everywhere.

[He Rides A White Horse]

There are those who attempt to argue against, or at least dilute the importance of God to our Founding Fathers.

God, the Creator, is something that set us apart from the rest of the pack.

No Feinstein, Hillary, Stalin, Gore, no person on the face of the earth has the right to deny us those rights endowed by our Creator.

[He Rides A White Horse]

To imply that rights are not granted by God is to imply that they are granted by men. Which of course implies that they can be revoked by men.

There is a reason why most of the founding patriots expressed a reverence to God. They wanted to make clear just where our rights came from.

[PsyOp]

You're on a roll! Nothing to argue with so far.

[He Rides A White Horse]

Thank you for your most timely post. There is much in there for us to reflect on.

Poor is the nation that has no heroes.
Shameful is the one that, having heroes - Forgets them!

Those Who Have Long Enjoyed Such Privileges As We Enjoy,
Forget In Time that Men Have Died To Win Them.

[SAMWolf]

"I was born AMERICAN; I will live AMERICAN; I shall die an AMERICAN; and I intend to perform the duties incumbent upon me in that character to the end of my career. I mean to do this with ABSOLUTE DISREGARD of personal consequences."
