My creators are my mother and father. Your creators are your mother and father. My parents and your parents are people. Rights come from the people.
Like somebody else said, the Declaration of Independance is not a legal document. There IS a legal document that does make it VERY clear that the United States was not founded on the Christian Religion. See the Treaty with Tripoli.

I am simply stating what the founding fathers themselves said...
rights come from the people? no, rights are imposed on other people... do you have a right to do anything? only if others LET you do it...
if the majority ever got around to figuring out they were the majority and could rule the other 49% with democratic impunity, slavery would make a quick re-appearance
