Vote Naturally Tomorrow

As we come one day closer to election day, I'd like to post Dr. Norman Geisler's "two declarations."

The first decleration is the Divine Lawgiver View which is based on natural law - which states that that all human beings are aware of certain laws that exist for the purpose of governing human conduct and protecting the rights of individuals. This is the context that our country was founded on. This declaration is also known as The Declaration of Independence:

"We hold these Truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among men." (Unshakable Foundations, p.200)

Nowadays, however, our culture has eschewed the historically universal belief in a natural law to that of a positive law...meaning that man has posited or made morality. Essentially, our country has a Naturalistc Evolutionist view of things, which can also be known as The Declaration of Contingency. Indeed, if the D of I were written today it would sound more like:

"We hold these relative truths to be self-evident, that all Homo sapiens have evolved slowly; that they are endowed by nature with certain contingent and relative rights; that among these are the right to kill their babies, the right to full autonomy and the right to pursue what makes them happy. That to create and secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Homo sapiens." (Unshakable Foundations, p.200)

Vote based on the only law that makes sense and won't lead to the degredation of human life and society...the natural law.
