Weedaphobic

The natural world functions and prospers… naturally.  There is an understanding in the natural world; your life is yours and you have a right to defend it.  You also have the liberty to live your life as you wish.  Life plus liberty yields the never ending quest to find happiness.

Some believe every tree, every plant, and every animal, right down to plankton, has a right to life.  The thought of any species being harvested or hunted for the benefit of man, disturbs them.  They will fight in man’s court to protect the rights of nature’s species; for they have a right to live and to live free.

The laws of nature are easy to observe.  Anyone who enjoys nature or simply enjoys feeding backyard animals watches the laws of nature in action. The animals and birds display basic rights.  They establish boundaries and protect what is theirs.  They will fight to the death, if need be, to protect themselves, their family unit, food and home.  Government doesn’t impede on the laws of nature within nature.  Man doesn’t grant basic rights.

There are many among us who will go to great lengths to protect the species of this earth, all species, except man.  Man is the dominate specie and is supposed to be the most intelligent.  But, when it comes to the rights of man, he is the first to encroach and ultimately deny basic, unalienable rights.

Man will be conniving in his quest to enslave others.  When deceit has run its course in the struggle for ultimate control, man will round up, imprison and eventually exterminate those who are unacceptable or pose a threat.

History has proven time and time again that lies are the seeds, the building blocks, to control others.  The lies are carefully nurtured. The fertilizer gets a makeover and is repackaged.  The most intelligent specie always falls for the dressed up, pretty package.

If weeds are found growing, they threaten to choke off the life and destroy the rest of the garden.  The gardener will seek out and destroy that which threatens to destroy his land.  Unfortunately, in today’s world, the gardener becomes the target.  He dared to call a weed a weed.  He identified the enemy and attempted to destroy it.  The news will report the gardener was always the threat.  He took special care of what was rightfully his but he denied the enemy, the weed, equal access.  He is labeled a Weedaphobic and will be demonized for not allowing the enemy access, which would have destroyed his garden.

It’s amazing how many people will stand up and fight for the unalienable rights of plants and animals but will deceive, enslave and destroy their own people.  The tree has a right to live but the human is discarded.  The enemy has a right to invade and destroy our land while the citizens are condemned for protecting their rights.

Last week on CNN, Chris Cuomo got into a heated exchange with Alabama Supreme Court Justice Roy Moore.  It was the perfect example of nature’s law vs. man’s law.  If you subscribe to man’s law, you believe your rights are given to you by the governing body.  The ruling party or individual determines what you are allowed or forbidden to do. 

When people live under the rule of a dictator or other types of tyrannical rule, they still have their basic rights; life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.  Man is on a continuous mission to control man so he makes laws denying basic rights.  If man gives you your rights, man can take them away.   

  

Nature’s Law comes from God.  Our rights are unalienable.  Man will always attempt to take them away but they are not given by man.  The founders were brilliant.  They stated it so eloquently in the Declaration of Independence, “…that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.” I’ve said this before, without life or liberty, happiness doesn’t exist.  This is what makes the United States exceptional. 

Our founders understood that given time, the governing powers that be, those who were elected to protect and defend the citizens of the United States, would attempt to take full control of the American people.  This is why the Declaration of Independence, the U.S. Constitution along with the Bill of Rights was drafted.  These are the reasons the American people have been willing to sacrifice and fight to the death, if need be, defending our God given rights.  Will you?

“Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others.  I do not add ‘within the limits of the law’ because law is often but the tyrant’s will, and always so when it violates the rights of the individual.”
