I agree. I believe that our unalienable, immutable rights come from our creator and not from any Earthly agency. That which the government gives, the government may just as easily take away. But that which God has bestowed, no man can remove nor repudiate.
And while I am not a Christian, I am perfectly okay with the 10 Commandments being displayed in public places, as well as allusions to God being placed on our currency and public buildings.
Christianity is the foundation of our culture and laws, whether I happen to embrace it as my religious faith or not, and the secularists and atheists who argue otherwise are simply wrong.
What you say is correct but Christianity has little to do with Natural Law Theory and God’s Law, although Aquinas aligned Catholic Theory to its logic and reason in the 13th century. That is the beauty of our government—this is a quote from the “Greatest Lawyer of All”— Marcus Tullius Cicero
(He tried to save the Republic of Rome. His ideas would have if they were put into practice.) Note: this is written long before Christianity.
“Power and the law are not synonymous. In truth they are frequently in opposition and irreconcilable. There is God’s Law from which all equitable laws of man emerge and by which men must live if they are not to die in oppression, chaos and despair. Divorced from God’s eternal and immutable Law, established before the founding of the suns, man’s power is evil no matter the noble words with which it is employed or the motives urged when enforcing it.
Men of good will, mindful therefore of the Law laid down by God, will oppose governments whose rule is by men, and , if they wish to survive as a nation they will destroy that government which attempt to adjudicate by the whim or power of venal judges.”
The first thing the Progressives (Wilson) did when in power is to pervert the laws of this nation, stack the courts with subversives (progressive/marxists) who instituted man-made laws that went against Natural Law Theory to create centralized power and remove us from God-Given Rights. It is all unconstitutional.
Clarence Thomas is the Judge with the most profound understanding of Natural Law Theory and that is why he was vehemently opposed, like Bork, who also understood the corrupted courts.
