If you believe the concept of "inalienable rights" in the Declaration of Independence, can you also be an atheist?
Specifically, those rights are inalienable because they were endowed by our Creator. So if you don't believe there was a Creator, where does that leave you? |
It leaves me under the same law that all of my fellow countrymen live under.
I hope you're not suggesting that we
should live under different laws than the "self professed" religious people.
It seems to me that the word "creator" was used mainly to get the support for the constitution from the religious people of the time. Sadly, they seemed a group that needed to be pandered to then, as they are now. ( Which in itself is kind of strange if you ask me.)
