Yes I agree with that statement, although whom or what it was "endowed by..." remains questionable. It seems that the Right to Life is the essence of our continuing existence.
And this is why I will resist forever the stupid marxist slant that "the greater good" is more important than you or I are.
Do you agree with the following statement as written?

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

So now I ask you, who is the bigger fool ?
Because your the one who follows a fool blindedly !!!!!
You need to get educated my friend, because you are clueless.
Which brings me to my next statement. Your Favorite Quotes, starting with:
“Property is the fruit of labor.
Abraham Lincoln knew all to well that we stole this land from its inhabitants that were already here, by killing them off by the thousands until they reluctantly surrendered under the threat of extinction.
And then Abraham Lincoln used the lifestyle they lived by "“Property is the fruit of labor", but the native Americans were willing to share their land with all because they believed the land could not be owned, but should be enjoyed by all mankind to obtain those fruits.
At which point do we become the legal owners of land?
When YOU own it?
When the government owns it?
Because the Native Americans owned it at one time since before 1500BC, and they had it taken from them by us!.
You say you are very opposed to the government taking property from one individual and giving it to another , and yet that's exactly what we did.
So you support that which you do not believe should be acceptable behaviour.
Your re-education into the new way of thinking is because you support that program that you most likely voted f...

Your re-education into the new way of thinking is because you support that program that you most likely voted for by voting for democrat or republican candidates. If you did not support them, and others did not support them America would not be in the shape it is today.
The only political party today that want's what you say you want is the Green Party, not any tea party that is going to follow the same old logic the democrats or republicans have that ran America into the toilet.
So in answer to your question " do I support a program where people like you are re-educated into the new way of thinking?
Nope!
Never have, never will.
But so far I am forced to go along with whatever the majority vote for.
And if that is un-American than I have millions who are likeminded, so I'm in good company my friend.
no biggie
Any and all Creators is implied, not one.
Any and all creators???????
Well I have a consern about that one too, because all creators, all gods are not of the same ideological profile. Some creators, gods, want those who do not worship them eliminated from the human race. So how is that logic in any way unfold into the pursuit of happiness ???????
And your answer is, it doesn't in any way, shape or form translate into any kind of happiness if your dead, now does it ????
No, it doesn't.
If you think that someone is supposed to give you opportunity, can you tell me who that is?
What it does state is all are to heve the opportunity, now if they do not wish to have it and use it to further themselves, that is another question, but no one should take that right away from them being able to pursue it.
Understand now?????
No one is giving you anything, but to have the opportunity to pursue it is quite another avenue.
can you grasp that concept????
At the time all the states except I think RI had established their own State church. That did change later though.
Lambert (2003) has examined the religious affiliations and beliefs of the Founders. Of the 55 delegates to the 1787 Constitutional Convention, 49 were Protestants, and three were Roman Catholics (C. Carroll, D. Carroll, and Fitzsimons). Among the Protestant delegates to the Constitutional Convention, 28 were Church of England (or Episcopalian, after the American Revolutionary War was won), eight were Presbyterians, seven were Congregationalists, two were Lutherans, two were Dutch Reformed, and two were Methodists.
A few prominent Founding Fathers were anti-clerical Christians, such as Thomas Jefferson[18][19][20] (who created the so-called "Jefferson Bible") and Benjamin Franklin.[21] A few others (most notably Thomas Paine) were deists, or at least held beliefs very similar to those of deists.[22]
Had you been there you could have put your two cents in.
Funny how you guys just think by sayin it ain't so, changes history.
Jebus boy? Im older than dirt.
