Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch said in a recent interview:

"The Declaration of Independence had three great ideas in it. That all of us are equal; that each of us has inalienable rights given to us by God, not government; and that we have the right to rule ourselves. Our nation is not founded on a religion. It's not based on a common culture, even, or heritage. It's based on those ideas. We're a creedal nation."

One can argue where inalienable rights come from, but it would be extremely hard to successfully argue that we don’t have them as a part of our being as humans. Among them are the rights to life, liberty, and to pursue happiness.

After reading recent dissents by Justice Jackson, it is refreshing to know we have independent justices like Gorsuch that understand our creedal nature and judge based on our Constitution and not partisan rancor.
