Do you have the right to live?

Do you think a person shall be deprived of life, liberty or property without due process of law? Do believe in the inalienable right to life for everyone, young or old, healthy or ill, conscious or unconscious, born or unborn?

In America's past with slavery, oppressors denied the humanity of African Americans. With abortion, oppressors deny the humanity of our preborn. The right to live is the fundamental civil right; it is God-given and not government-granted. It is not a privelege of the elite and denied to the poor. Life is precious, you're reading this right nowbecause someone respected your right to live. If you don't fight for the unborn, who will? The unborn? Hardly, they will continue to die while women selfishly "choose" to do away with that little problem inside them. Choose life and not death. God is the author of life. The devil came to kill, steal and destroy. Who are you going to serve?

"Now therefore fear the LORD, and serve him in sincerity and in truth: and put away the gods which your fathers served on the other side of the flood, and in Egypt; and serve ye the LORD. And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD." (Joshua 24:14-15)

Introduction to the
DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE


When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bonds which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

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. That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. That whenever any form of government becomes destructive to these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shown that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security. --Such has been the patient sufferance of these colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former systems of government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over these states. To prove this, let facts be submitted to a candid world.
