The Oracle of Rights (Part 1)

With hindsight to the declaration of independence, through the lens of anachronism comprehension to the United States constitution, and foresight to our legacy as a society of free persons, understanding that time is the unknown enemy of free person's ability to exercise their natural rights as laid out in the "Bill of Rights", as time has without fail, grinds the peoples understanding, and erodes the foundations that where laid out in the United states constitution, we turn a blind eye to history, and disregard it's lessons, believing that we know what's best. Yet, we can within reason, suspect that in a sense, the roots of apathy have taken root, yet burdened with the over abundance of knowledge, and a lack of wisdom to filter out what to engage in. Our commitment to our natural rights should adhere to the three tenants laid out in the Declaration of independence;

"That we hold these truth to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights, that among them that life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness..."

These unalienable rights are the filter in which we can use as a source of wisdom to question any law, policy, or restrictions.

I purpose three questions, that any representative, and for that matter any citizen that has by right of birth, or by Oath to the Constitution, to form a more perfect nation, for justice and liberty for all.

1 )Does this protect the right to life for all?

2) Does this protect liberty for all?

3) Does this protect the pursuit of happiness for all?

Definitions :

1) Life - each person has a right to live without fear of harm.

2) Liberty - freedom of oppressive restrictions, imposed by authority on one's way of life, behavior, or political view. To exercise one's free will, without interceding on another's liberty.

3) Pursuit of Happiness - While pleasure would fall under this, our founding fathers did not expect hedonism to so easily take root. Their concerns were along the lines of pursuing your ambitions and working towards a satisfying life, with prosperity, self-improvement, and contributing to society.

If we are to protect our natural rights, the three tenents should be used as a litmus test for any law passed by any branch of or part of government.
