Everything that looks to the future elevates human nature; for life is never so low or so little as when occupied with the present.
No, I think the future of humanity will be like the past, we'll do what we've always done and there will still be human beings. Granted, there will always be people doing something different and there are a lot of possibilities.
Deny human rights, and however little you may wish to do so, you will find yourself abjectly kneeling at the feet of that old-world god, Force.
I believe that God has a plan and purpose not only for the human race, but for my individual life.
This foundational principle - that human beings derive their rights from God, rather than from the State, or any other source - is what made America different.
