REQUIRED SECTION

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 God that holds you over the pit of hell, much as one holds a spider, or some loathsome insect over the fire, abhors you, and is dreadfully provoked… You have offended him infinitely more than ever a stubborn rebel did his prince; and yet it is nothing but his hand that holds you from falling into the fire every moment.
Jonathan Edwards, Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God, 1741
The period of debate is closed. Arms as the last resource decide the contest… Everything that is right or reasonable pleads for separation. The blood of the slain, the weeping voice of nature’s crises. Tis time to part!
Thomas Paine, Common Sense, 1776
