" The first paragraph of the Declaration of Independence answers the question for me. Now we can have a honest debate if it was “necessary” in 1861, or what would it take to be “necessary” in the future, but I don't think we can make a point this paragraph only was for the eyes of King George and those living in the 18th century.

" When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bonds which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

“When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bonds which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.”

I think your the only one on the thread that gets it.

The Declaration of Independence ‘is’ codified law of the USA.

It’s importance to absolute liberty supersedes The Constitution due to rights guaranteed to us by God.

This is why the Libs hate God so much. Our rights are given by him and by no man.
