The U.S. not merely a Nation State.

Funny you should say that, because the very first step, the Declaration of Independence, states loud and clear that All Men are Created Equal endowed by their CREATOR with certain inalienable rights. This of course took the value of a man away from men and gave it to a HIGHER POWER so no mere man can take it away as happens always.

They took our souls into consideration not the Nation State and the possibility that we could form a more perfect union with God's Nature and nature's G_d, not willing to rely on the nature of man. We are benefiting from their wisdom and humility.
