In our lifetime, we have seen many advances in understanding and implementation of so-called human rights. We have witnessed the Voting Rights Act, Title IX sex discrimination legislation, the Americans with Disabilities Act. Supreme Court rulings overturned state bans on contraception and interracial marriage. Abortion and same-sex marriage have been legalized. It seems odd that our government would have to guarantee these fundamental human rights. Since our country’s inception, many things were declared to be illegal, and most of them were in regard to women and minorities’ rights being stifled. We made many advances during the 20th Century, and we were proud of our open minds and higher thinking. Now, in the 21st Century, it seems many people believe these human rights are not something which should be legislated. I agree they shouldn’t have to be, as we are all One in Spirit. Well, I won’t go on and on about this. It’s pretty simple if we let our beliefs and ego fade away, allowing Love to rule our ways. Namaste…
"The history of our country, like all history, illustrates the might of Mind, and shows human power to be proportionate to its embodiment of right-thinking. A few immortal sentences, breathing the omnipotence of divine justice, have been potent to break despotic fetters and abolish the whipping post and slave market, but oppression neither went down in blood, nor did the breath of freedom come from the cannon's mouth. Love is the liberator."
Mary Baker Eddy - Science & Health Page 255:14-22 circa 1865
“Today we will claim the miracles which are your right, since they belong to you. You have been promised full release from the world you made. You have been assured that the Kingdom of God is within you, and can never be lost. We ask no more than what belongs to us in truth. Today, however, we will also make sure that we will not content ourselves with less.”
