The Generosity of the State


Where do our rights come from? What do you think? Are our rights innate, because we are human? Are our rights bore from the loins of mother earth? Does evolution relegate us to the same status as all other living plants and animals of the earth? Are rights granted by government?

Or ... maybe you agree with the President John F. Kennedy, and a host of others that have gone before us ...

"... the rights of man come not from the generosity of the state, but from the hand of God." - President, John F. Kennedy, Inaugural Address, Friday, January 20, 1961

Maybe you agree with the Declaration of Independence ... "We are endowed by Our Creator." Maybe you agree with the Bible? Seriously, now...

The Bible does not spell it out in those exact words. The Bible does tell us that we are the product of creation; special creation. The Bible does put man in authority over the animals and the plants of the earth. The Bible does tell us in many situations that institutions are made for man, not man for the sake of the institutions. The Bible also tells us that we are not to have any other gods before The Lord God of Israel (including government). The Bible tells us that everything we have comes from God.

Secular Humanism teaches that the Bible is outdated and proven wrong. I beg to differ. Secular Humanism says that man will save humanity and the earth. I beg to differ. Secular Humanism says that you are the product of evolution, therefore, your rights cannot come from God. In their eyes, God does not exist. Secular Humanism is a religion and political philosophy, and it is being taught to our sons and daughters in public schools and universities.

Friends, the origin of rights is a fundamental matter upon which the Constitution, Liberty, Freedom, and the up-coming presidential election rest. Most people today have ditched the old beliefs. Most people today have adopted the ideology of the Religous Humanist. Many have even turned to government as their god.

If you dare to hope again for America politics. Place your hope in God. If America is going to be saved politically, or any other way, it will be by the hand of God. If our children and grand-children enjoy the same liberties and freedoms we've known, it will be because of God and Godly ways. The ways of man; the ways of the Secular Humanist, the ways of the Secular Progressive have proven wrong. They are not advancing the cause of liberty in the United States. They are producing more restrictions on citizens, and more dependency on government regulation.

Get free! Have hope; Political Hope! Trust in God and His Ways! God Save the U.S.A.
