Natural law is the foundation upon which the U.S. legal system was built.
The Declaration of Independenceasserts that every human is granted unalienable rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, and it was that assertion that formed the frame of the United States legal system.
Freedom and the right to self-determination is natural and lawful, inherent in all humans and does not regard a state of mind, condition, or national identity. Every human, by free will, is sovereign and can self-governing if he/she chooses to do so.
Natural law is at loggerheads with many as it claims that humans are born with a certain moral compass that guides behaviors.
I'm so glad I'm not free.
I wanted to jump to the moon. So I went out into the parking lot at night when the moon was shining, and I jumped. I jumped and jumped and jumped. But I never got very far off the ground trying to jump to the moon.
After a while the sour grapes attitude set in. And it was then that I remembered that if I had been able to jump to the moon, I would have died in space for lack of air, and certainly of exposure (I hadn't been jumping with my space suit on.).
Thank Goodness that I am a slave to the laws of nature.
Of course, it didn't work out so well for all those Ukrainian soldiers who used their freedom to fight a war.
