this is a common argument, to actually try to show that it is 'self contradictory' to deny a 'right to life'. But, the evidence is that life is an ongoing biochemical reaction, nothing more - one can simply introduce different levels of descriptions of these chemical reactions. Clearly the chemical reaction does not require some sort of 'right' in order to continue reacting. Unless you take 'right' as 'natural law'. But the reaction often kills. So technically it would have this right.

This is nonsense.

Maybe you are selfcondradicting by the very act of denying? If you are not sure whether you have the right to your life, then who granted you the right to write this comment?Just a thought though....

they arent logically 'self-evident', because if they were, the denial of them would entail a contradiction, or they would be impossible to imagine clearly as being false, or some other strict critera depending on your philosophical tradition. They are *assumptions*, not 'self-evident' truths, regardless of what our constitution... or declaration... whichever it is...says. Whether something is 'self-evident' is not a subjective notion, thats my point. anyway, assuming it wont make it true.

EverettsVLOG: I have no idea how you think this is "a bunch of brute assumptions" or where there is a tautology. They aren't proving anything, they are making statements. This is simply stating the whole foundation for the United States as a republic and the principles that a just government adheres to. Plain and simple. Either you take them to be "self-evident" truths or you don't.
