Chuck Todd needs to read up on the concept of natural law. Start with John Locke and follow up with John Stuart Mill.

Some rights enumerated in the Constitution are natural. Some are not.

Well, hell. I just learned that natural rights are a myth.

It's probably Chuck Todd's account here that said that though.

Man is free in his natural state. Governments are merely constructs created by humans to protect those natural rights.

I'm as much a Christian believer as you will find. I see nothing in God's word that says God has granted these so called inalienable rights as stated in DOI. We have 2 unconditional rights and one conditional right. We have the right to die and to be judged. We also have the right to pass from judgment to life if we accept Jesus as savior.

Jesus said his followers would be persecuted and many would be killed for following him. How does anyone rectify that with the belief of God giving us the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness?

Cuck Todd is a straight up piece of fetid shite. No room for interpretation.

That may be true, but our founding fathers were just as full of shite. They wrote and signed the document stating all men are created equal and endowed with liberty from God. Many of those same men owned slaves, who were men. How do you rectify that hypocrisy? How can someone believe in life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness yet enslave 100's of thousands or millions of people?
