307. Th Declaration of Independence Has No Life
The U.S. Congress, many U.S. presidents, and the Supreme Court have not identified or amended the Declaration of Independence (DOI). Only President Lincoln spoke of the scientific law, that all Men are created equal. This law started the U.S. civil war to eliminate slavery.
The first two paragraphs of the DOI say:
When in the Course of human Events, it becomes necessary for one People to dissolve the political Bands, which have connected them with another, and assume among the Powers of the Earth, the separate and equal Station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
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.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.--Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.

The DOI would be drafted by Thomas Jefferson ten years after Ben Franklin had been sent to Europe in 1766 and learned new and very different theories about God and the universe. These new theories had been developed first by Jesus, who studied a new theory of God and the universe in Greece. These new theories were developed later by Nicholas of Cusa, Copernicus, Galileo, Kepler, and Leibniz. These modern theories would challenge Newton billiard ball universe and England's physical atoms. So, the Stamp Act of England was only part of the concern of the American colonists.
In 1790, Franklin's autobiography tell us more about his trips to Europe saying that the divinity of Jesus can be doubted and that humans have immortal souls. In 1776, Franklin, and many founders of the DOI, new that deism, theism, and atheism must be rejected and that panentheism is defining the true God and an endless universe.
The people of the USA and their government have lost God. And knowledge of the universe is something unknown to them. Human life in the USA is terrible. The people must give the DOI a real life.
