Medical Freedom

 

Preamble to the Declaration

 

Preamble

When

in the course of human events it becomes necessary for the people to clarify the proper relationship between the people and their forms of government, it is incumbent of the people to clearly explain the principles that govern that relationship going forward.

This Declaration will serve that purpose and address the needs of the present time to forever enshrine the People’s Right to Medical Freedom.

Whereas

sacred religious traditions and teachings confirm that Mankind was made in the Image of God and that the human body is a Temple of God.

Said traditions confirm that Human Beings were divinely gifted with Free Will, the right to make one’s own decisions in life. It is therefore incumbent for Men and Women to use their Free Will to protect that which is sacred.

In addition to religious traditions, the political heritage of America recognizes God Given Rights.

The preamble to the Declaration of Independence states:

“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”.

The Declaration further states:

“That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed”.

The Founders of America were clear that the purpose of the American revolution was to liberate mankind from oppressive forms of government. Further that the entire human race was to receive the blessings of Natural law and Freedom.

“Natural liberty is a gift of the beneficent Creator to the whole human race, and that civil liberty is founded in that; and cannot be wrested from any people, without the most manifest violation of justice.”

Alexander Hamilton (1757-1804)

American statesman, Secretary of the Treasury

“A bill of rights is what the people are entitled to against every government on earth, general or particular, and what no just government should to rest on inference.”

Thomas Jefferson (1743-1826)

US Founding Father, drafted the Declaration of Independence, 3rd US President

“It is a common observation here that our cause is the cause of all mankind, and that we are fighting for their liberty in defending our own.”

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790)

US Founding Father

They [the founders] proclaimed to all the world the revolutionary doctrine of the divine rights of the common man. That doctrine has ever since been the heart of the American faith.”

Dwight D. Eisenhower (1890-1969)

34th US President, WWII General

“May [the Declaration of Independence] be to the world, what I believe it will be (to some parts sooner, to others later, but finally to all), the signal of arousing men to burst the chains under which monkish ignorance and superstition had persuaded them to bind themselves, and to assume the blessings and security of self- government. That form which we have substituted, restores the free right to the unbounded exercise of reason and freedom of opinion. All eyes are opened, or opening, to the rights of man.”

Thomas Jefferson

Other spiritual luminaries and great thinkers confirmed the right of individuals to self-government

“The Natural Liberty of Man is to be free from any Superior Power on Earth, and not to be under the Will or Legislative Authority of Man, but to have only the Law of Nature for his Rule.”

John Locke

English philosopher and political theorist

“There will never be a really free and enlightened State until the State comes to recognize the individual as a higher and independent power, from which all its own power and authority are derived, and treats him accordingly.”

Henry David Thoreau

“At the heart of western freedom and democracy is the belief that the individual man… is the touchstone of value, and all society, groups, the state, exist for his benefit. Therefore, the enlargement of liberty for individual human beings must be the supreme goal and abiding practice of any western society.”

Robert F. Kennedy

US Senator, Attorney General

“The only freedom deserving the name, is that of pursuing our own good in our own way. Any power must be an enemy of mankind which enslaves the individual by power and by force, whether it arises under the Fascist or the Communist flag. All that is valuable in human society depends upon the opportunity for development accorded to the individual.”

Albert Einstein

Physicist and Professor, Nobel Prize 1921

The unalienable right of the individual to autonomy over one’s own body is clear

“Unless we put medical freedom into the Constitution, the time will come when medicine will organize into an undercover dictatorship to restrict the art of healing to one class of Men (and women) and deny equal privileges to others; the Constitution of the Republic should make a Special Privilege for medical freedoms as well as religious freedom.”

Dr. Benjamin Rush

Noted physician, medical professor, and signer of the Declaration of Independence

“Each is the proper guardian of his own health, whether bodily, or mental and spiritual. Mankind are greater gainers by suffering each other to live as seems good to themselves, than by compelling each to live as seems good to the rest.”

John Stuart Mill (1806-1873)

English philosopher and economist

“The error seems not sufficiently eradicated, that the operations of the mind, as well as the acts of the body, are subject to the coercion of the laws. But our rulers can have authority over such natural rights only as we have submitted to them. The rights of conscience we never submitted, we could not submit. We are answerable for them to our God. The legitimate powers of government extend to such acts only as are injurious to others. … Was the government to prescribe to us our medicine and diet, our bodies would be in such keeping as our souls are now. Thus in France the emetic was once forbidden as a medicine, and the potatoe as an article of food.”

Thomas Jefferson

“The only freedom deserving the name, is that of pursuing our own good in our own way. Any power must be an enemy of mankind which enslaves the individual by power and by force, whether it arises under the Fascist or the Communist flag. All that is valuable in human society depends upon the opportunity for development accorded to the individual.”

Albert Einstein

Physicist and Professor, Nobel Prize 1921

The absolute right of the people to reform government at any level is clear.

“Government is instituted for the common good; for the protection, safety, prosperity, and happiness of the people; and not for profit, honor, or private interest of any one man, family, or class of men; therefore, the people alone have an incontestable, unalienable, and indefeasible right to institute government; and to reform, alter, or totally change the same, when their protection, safety, prosperity, and happiness require it.”

John Adams

Founding Father, 2nd US President

Further, the absolute right of the individual to bodily autonomy is born out through historical precedent.

The nations of the earth came together after World War II following the atrocities committed against the Jewish people. The Nuremberg Code, adopted worldwide, specifically outlaws medical experiments on human subjects without the informed consent of those subjects.

Recently, the governmentally proclaimed “Covid-19 pandemic” was used by global, national, and local health authorities to violate unalienable rights as well as provisions of the Nuremberg Code;

These violations included the deprivation of the free exercise of religion as well as the violation of sacred medical freedoms and ethics requiring informed consent before any medical procedure.

Governments throughout the world assumed they possessed powers that are contrary to God-Given natural law. Assumptions were made that these governments could use their positions of power to forcefully impose their will upon the People, disrupt their lives in any way, and invade their bodily autonomy without their consent. These practices included forced masking, lock-downs, social distancing, closing of schools, closing of businesses, and deprivation of livelihoods at their whim.

The assumption that governments can continue with these requirements and violations must forever be banished.

Now is the time to Declare the Absolute Right of the Individual to complete Bodily Autonomy and Medical Freedom.
