Liberty (Implicit)

 

The Proto Criteria; Addendum

The Implicit Declaration of the Right to Liberty

 

As I have maintained from the beginning,

An Excerpt from The Right to Liberty

Freedom is an estate that exists both Internally and Externally.   It must live in your Heart as well as the World around you in order to be realized.

Internal Freedom is measured by a Passionate Regard for the Sanctity of Human Life.  Without a Passionate Regard for the Sanctity of Human Life a Human Being can never be Free; they cannot do what is Just nor believe what is True because their own Opinions lead them into a state of Personal Bondage.  

 External Freedom, on the other hand, is measured in terms of Obligations, Regulations, and Dependencies.  External Freedom is inversely proportional to the number of Obligations, Regulations, and Dependencies a person is forced to endure.  The fewer the number of Obligations, Regulations, and Dependencies a person has to endure, the more Freedom they possess.  The greater the number of Obligations, Regulations, and Dependencies a person has to endure, the less Freedom they possess.    

    • Obligations are those entities for which a person is Financially and Ethically bound.
    • Regulations are those authoritative decrees which a person must obey.
    • Dependencies are those estates where a person is void of self-determination.

 

The following is the Declaration of the Right to Liberty as expressed in the Proclamation of the Proto Criteria.  It is, therefore, the Explicit Declaration of the Right to Liberty.

The Right to Liberty

A Human Being shall have the Right to Do everything that is Just and Believe everything that is True, so long as they Revere the Right to Life.  A Human Being shall Not be made to Tolerate the Suppression of Truth, nor be forced to Commit an Injustice.

As you can see, the Explicit Declaration of the Right to Liberty deals primarily with the Internal aspects of Freedom and does not overtly address the External aspects regarding Obligations, Regulations, and Dependencies.  The Explicit Declaration is Profound, and it was written to be the Supreme Expression of a Human Being’s Unalienable Right to Liberty.

However, since the Explicit Declaration of the Right to Liberty is Profound, and appears to be Abstract, it becomes necessary to craft a more direct, and perhaps more practical, version of the Declaration of the Right to Liberty to suit the needs of those who are not so analytically inclined.

Therefore, I, the original author, have fashioned an Implicit Declaration of the Right to Liberty for those who cannot intellectually process the Explicit.  It identifies as specific Liberties those things which were not overtly expressed in the Proclamation of the Proto Criteria, but were meant to be Deduced.

It shall be regarded as an Official Addendum to the Declaration of the Right to Liberty and may be used synonymously or in concert with the Explicit Declaration.

The Implicit Right to Liberty

Regarding Obligations:

A Human Being shall have the Right to Keep and Personally Benefit from the Fruits of their Own Labor, so long as they Revere the Right to Life.  A Human Being shall not be Forced by any Governing Body to Financially Support People over which they have no Direct Control; the Reverently Acquired Wealth and Property of a Human Being shall Not be Confiscated by anyone for Redistribution to others.   

Regarding Dependencies:

A Human Being shall Not be forced or coerced to Enroll in a Program of Dependency; they shall not be made to Rely on the Government for their Food, Shelter, Healthcare, or Finances as a Pet relies on their Master.  The Wealth a Human Being personally and Reverently generates shall Not be Confiscated to fund Programs of Dependency.     

Regarding Regulations:

A Human Being shall not be Forced to obey Laws which have nothing to do with the Security of the Proto Criteria, their Unalienable Rights.  Every Law must Protect the Unalienable Rights of Mankind without Violating the Unalienable Rights of Mankind.  The Unalienable Right to Liberty is not to be Violated for the sake of a Fallacy.

 

Note: When I use the terms Reverently Acquired and Reverently Generated, I refer to things that are done according to the Principles of the Proto Criteria.
