Nothing to refute but to obfuscate with a generic phrase even the Bible uses to describe man.

Indeed. I read the Declaration in a similar fashion: "all men" literally means all humans, not just those capable of overpowering others.

The same as our Founders' including their sentiments about slavery that were struck out of the Declaration's draft.

Please be specific on what that is.

You mentioned being enslaved.


Does the word 'enslaved' appear in what you are referencing.  If it does, what does it mean?

But you've seen plenty of historical evidence that it is.  1,264,000 pieces of evidence.

Where in the Constitution can this be found?

If you have no knowledge of the slavery portion of the Declaration's draft and why it was struck from the final doc I suggest you google (generic term, like you prefer) it. Otherwise, I'll not do your homework for you.

So you admit you do not know what being 'enslaved'means.

I thought so.

Good night all.

then you have absolutely no basis to make the statement that you made in this thread as you cannot back up your definition.

I have no redress.

With all due respect, do you realize that the Declaration of Independence is NOT a governing document?

And where would we be without it? Supreme Court decisions have been made based on it as well as other non-governing docs.
