It is based on individual rights, a concept within Christian teaching. The difference is important because if it is based on religion (Christian) then if sufficient numbers of citizens hold to a DIFFERENT religion in which some laws are in conflict, the community (be it a city - Dearborn for example), or a State can change those laws to conform to THAT religion. <br /><br />Having as a foundation individual rights and the protection thereof protects ALL religions and the society as a whole from those religions.<br /><br />Yes, I of such divergent lifestyles, can live peacefully within our society based on Christian beliefs, but living under religious legal foundations threatens my rights and my liberty and anyone else's that does not adhere to the beliefs of the dominant religion.Tracy Coylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13396494193507308556noreply@blogger.com
