Inalienable rights are unarguable, they are undeniable and they cannot be taken away. Under what authority can such rights

be guaranteed? Only God has the authority to grant such rights. Only under God, can a government of the people, by the

people and for the people operate morally and fairly.

A recent trend among our liberal Supreme Court Justices is to defer to European law and to International law when their

activist views cannot be reconciled, with current precedent, in United States Law. The main reason these views cannot be

reconciled is because our law is grounded to an ultimate and all powerful authority, and not driven by humanistic whim. If we

do concede that United States Law is inadequate to rule our country, then we also must concede that we do in fact have no

inalienable rights and that government does have authority to take and award rights at will.

It is always instructive to study governments which are antithesis of our government, to prognosticate what our nation would

be like if we were to move away from our core values and our “inalienable rights”. Communist countries give us the best

glimpse of what this life would look like when authority does not come from God, but when it comes from government.

In communist countries, individuals are properties of the state. The state is all powerful and individual liberties are

inconsequential. In communist nations God and religion are subjugated in the most offensive and prejudicial methods

possible. It is common for communist nations to jail or kill individuals for religious speech and opinion. How can a state

demand allegiance from its people if it is competing with God for authority? Obviously, it cannot.

If a Nation is to have a motto I can think of none better than, “In God We Trust”.

And if a Nation is to have no motto, are we not saying, “Anything Goes” and inviting despotism upon our people when some

charismatic politician convinces a narrow majority that God’s inalienable rights ought to be reconsidered?
