Paul Ryan: Our Rights Come From God Not the Constitution
Just what we need whispering in the magic underwear waring president's ear. Another religious nut who knows nothing of the constitution wanting to hold high office.
UPDATE: And before you bitch about the 'double video' in this post be aware that LL changed something. You no longer need to 'insert' a video into the posting which has been chosen using the method method. Previously the video would not appear at all if you did not do this, now it creates a double. FYI

0:57 "<effeminate giggle> I thought that our rights came from uh the Constitution. Isn't that the document that is held sacred by all these conservatives?"
Actually dude, some of us read the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence.
Go back to 0:33 and listed to what Ryan says. Now read what he was referring to:
"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 amo More..

Um.... the consitution and Bill of rights are rooted in rights given to us from "God"...not the gov't. The Bill of rights was written to PROTECT THOSE RIGHTS FROM GOV'T.
This is the end result and mindset of those who simply lack the knowledge of history. And they almost hit the point... but they missed
If you rely on the gov't to "give" you rights, that same gov't can just as easily take them away.

@gammyland No. the bill of rights are rooted in civilisation and colonisation. Many people have died fighting for these rights which have finally passed with the majority or a well educated official(president for example). Saying that it comes for god is like spitting all these great people in time that fought for freedom and the weak in the face. We, people, humans, community and strong individuals did this

@nexus1961 Or people could just listen to what Ryan actually said in this video, because he explains a fundamental principle of US government quite succinctly. But those who aren't big on book-learnin probably aren't big on listening either.

The DOI sets the precedent for the rights by stating;
"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"

The reason Liberals want to destroy God is that they believe THEY grant us our rights. The reason they hate the 2nd Amendment is that they know what we will do when they try to take our God given rights. Liberals are quite content to live as slaves.

I do not hate the 2nd amendment and have been preparing for people exactly like you.
No fairy godmother gives you special rights.
It is certainly not in the constitution.
How can a shit ass gawd, who kills millions of innocent people every

You are a fool and I mock you to your face for your complete ignorance.

See, your anger just proves my theory that both far left liberals and/or atheists are always angry. Never satisfied with anything in the world, wether it be good, bad, majority in the W.H. or a having more of a voice - Just bitch and moan..... Live your life, most us of us Americans respect other's opinions.
FYI I am not religious however the Constitution is based on god given rights and the separation of church and state. If you lived in North Korea, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Yemen etc.. you would l More..

@emtee23 Atheists are not angry, just bemused by it all, religion should be a personal thing, not something you try and vent through politics, will never insult or question anybodys religion and will always respect thier religion if they don't try and force it on me, they are all the same to me anyway, but when somebody starts to use religion in a way that may impact or have an influence on my life, then I will question it, and if I do that on here they normally block me.

As stated in THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE;
"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."
Pleas take close note of words 19, 20 and 21.

@Shady-Cadence Actually, it's quite telling that they used the term "creator" rather than "God" - it indicates a specific intent not to say "God." It also indicates that the founding fathers were open-minded, instead of bible-thumping zealots.
Today, I know that my "creator" is a process called evolution. But even back then, they kept an open mind.

@hellgremlin Indeed, "endowed by their Creator" could also very easily mean "the right bestowed upon your birth by your pater and mater".

That's silly on the face of it. No Constitution can claim that all people are created equal and also that the law of the land comes from a god. That favors some over others.
Do you suppose the forefathers thought about these things already and discussed it among themselves? I know they did and I recommend some on this thread look up exactly what the Forefathers meant in the Declaration of Independence when they referred to "nature and nature's god" and also 13 years later when they q More..
