“There was nothing “at pleasure” about the Declaration.”
I am beginning to doubt the dogma of “at pleasure” is based on the sacred text of our nation’s founding document. Brother Joe has preached “at pleasure” in nearly every sermon and I had assumed it was carved into stone.

Each state was free to determine necessity for itself - just as they did in 1776. No state required any sort of permission from others to declare independence just as no colony required the permission of the rest of the British Empire to secede.
