Understanding the meaning of an unalienable right is essential to anyone that has a desire to understand the relationship between liberty and responsibility. Thomas Jefferson wrote in the Declaration of Independence that it was a self evident truth that all men were created equal and that they were endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights. Any right that is lien able is not a right, it is a privilege. According to my way of thinking God gave us the authority to do whatever we want as long as we do not harm someone else. We have the right do as we wish as long as we respect the life, liberty and property of everyone else. Our government was created to protect the God given rights of the people by punishing those violate the rights of the members of our society. Jefferson indicated that the existence of God was a self evident truth. It was well understood by the founders that the people did not have the authority to give their new government power and authority that they themselves did not possess. They understood that any law, rule, regulation, statute, code or ordinance that put limits the freedom of individuals to exercise their God given rights would be contrary to the will of the Creator. I believe that God exists and that he will hold us individually accountable for violating the life, liberty and property of others. God can not judge us fairly, unless we have the freedom to choose. If we compel our neighbors to do what we think is right, we put ourselves on his throne. God wants us to do what is right but he does want to us to be compelled to do what is right. I believe that a crime has been committed when someone's life, liberty or property of another has been violated. The proper role of government is to punish those that injure other members of society. Only humans were endowed with unalienable rights. Groups such as unions, churches, political parties and corporations have no God given rights. They are institutions created by man and derive their power from the consent of man and not from God. The progressives would have us believe that the groups have rights and that individuals are merely have privileges granted to them by the state.
