The most endangered concept and
foundation of the American Republic is LIBERTY. The entire validity and
purpose of government is to advance and protect individual natural rights.
Natural law is the only supreme canon to base government upon and organize
society. Our common law tradition rests upon natural law. Western
civilization’s essence is intrinsic in the inherent autonomy of each human
being. Our universal nature bestowed from God. Life is not an accident, but is
a gift. Christian ethics, values and teachings are synonymous with the founding
of our nation. Thomas Jefferson states, "The God who gave us life, gave us
liberty at the same time." (A Summary View of the Rights of British America).
