King Charles III on the Founders and the influence of the Magna Carta on the American Revolution: “The Founding Fathers were bold and imaginative rebels with a cause. 250 years ago, or, as we say in the United Kingdom, just the other day, they declared independence by balancing contending forces and drawing strength in diversity. They united 13 disparate colonies to forge a nation on the revolutionary idea of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. They carried with them and carried forward the great inheritance of the British Enlightenment, as well as the ideals which had an even deeper history in English common law and Magna Carta. These roots run deep, and they are still vital. Our Declaration of Rights of 1689 was not only the foundation of our constitutional monarchy, but also provided the source of so many of the principles reiterated, often verbatim, in the American Bill of Rights of 1791. And those roots go even further back in history, the U.S. Supreme Court Historical Society has calculated that Magna Carta is cited in at least 160 Supreme Court cases since 1789, not least as the foundation of the principle that executive power is subject to checks and balances. This is the reason why the Stanza Stone by the River Thames at Runnymede — where Magna Carta was signed in the year 1215 — this stone records that an acre of that ancient and historic site was given to the United States of America by the people of the United Kingdom to symbolize our shared resolve in support of liberty and in memory of President John F. Kennedy. Distinguished members of the 119th Congress, it is here in these very halls, that this spirit of liberty and the promise of America's founders is present in every session and every vote cast, not by the will of one, but by the deliberation of many representing the living mosaic of the United States in both of our countries. It is the very fact of our vibrant, diverse, and free societies that gives us our collective strength, including to support victims of some of the ills that so tragically exist in both our societies today.”

@Red_Flags_Press Temporal Rights are natural rights (those claimed in our Declaration) grounded on the natural dominion demonstrated by all creatures as they consume and otherwise use natural objects for themselves. This is a fully developed existential paradigm at universalrights.ai

@josephpmbrtn Your grandpa used to say that you could find truth by finding something that was vigorously opposed by irrational claims.

@bradpemberton So the fox is officially appointed to take care of things in the hen house? I find it difficult to express what I think about that, so I will just we must stop funding the fox!

Denaturalization is common sense paralleling the marriage covenant. If a citizen obtained citizenship by fraud, it is void. If a naturalized citizen breaks his allegiance vow, it is cancelled. We need to enforce these good old laws that are just common sense. "chroniclesmagazine.org/view/the-vow-t…"

11 years ago. Why the 180° on immigration policy?
Thomas Sowell Quotes@ThomasSowell
Bernie Sanders in 2015: "Open borders? … That's a right-wing proposal which says essentially there is no US. It would make everybody in America poorer… What rightwing people in this country would love is an open-border policy… I don't believe in that."

@josephpmbrtn While selling ad space to oceanshores.com 30+years ago, I was in the office of a motel owner who handed a letter to a staffer and asked him to send it. When he returned it a few minutes later, she said, "I thought I told you to send it."

@bradpemberton @TuckerCarlson It seemed to me that Tucker was applying a religious test, or advocating one.

@jacksnpemberton @TuckerCarlson Religious test is a terrible idea. Our founding fathers wouldn’t do it. We need to look at all the scenarios to establish why and why not.

I have tried second-guessing the prophets like this, but found it a waste of time. I have no authority to direct the Church, and they have it all. That's one good reason to spend my time on things I have control over. The other, much better reason is that I have no right or need for inspiration on how the Church should administer its affairs, so whatever I do will be just me doing uninspired things. That concept is heavily supported by the fact that there is no way I can even begin to have the perspective on worldwide conditions that the leaders have from their worldwide travels. Finally, if they have made any mistakes for which they are somehow culpable, that is their personal problem, a matter between them and their God, and none of my business. So let us hold on our way, brother.

I am in favor of a church culture that is more open to debate.
The early church was the Wild West. It was a messy, exciting period of new ideas, bad ideas and profound revelation.
Something shifted in the 20th century. We became more dogmatic. The first presidency brought the auxiliaries more under their control. We started treating the prophets as infallible- which was never the case before- and raised a generation of Mormons who learned about polygamy, etc., on their missions.
Maybe SOME of that was necessary. It was a period of stability and sustained growth.
But, I feel like we started stagnating. And then declining when the internet revealed facts many were never taught. Many were blindsided with no defense.
But, I believe the faithful millennials and Gen-Z Saints will bring about a period of greater openness, honesty, and further light and knowledge.
God will bless us in our quest for truth.
We are ready for the next stage.

@PassagePress God put Ezra Taft Benson in the Eisenhower White House 30 years before the iron curtain fell, and his books warn about the creeping communism infecting America.

@TJump_ @AxiomSolos Natural Rights has a suggestion here. They are the emergent morality of natural law. Putting the existential moral hierarchy in a stack adds some interesting granularity to the moral spectrum. If you are interested, check out bit.ly/a-tr-dependenc…

@AxiomSolos children can't consent, this applies to consenting conscious agents
if a person stopped another person from doing something dangerous is that immoral, yes.
parent are doing the lesser evil, prevent kids from doing things (lesser harm) to prevent the greater harm from nature
English

@TJump_ @AxiomSolos That's pretty good but not very practical. But then, I'm guessing you weren't looking for practical - purly philosophical.
English

@AxiomSolos immoral = involuntary imposition of will
moral = voluntary assistance of will
