We Didn T Have Today
Have you ever wondered, what our world would be like if we didn't have anything like what we didn't have now? Imagine if we didn't have phones or food or freedom; there is more than one gift in my generation. Freedom is one of my gifts. Freedom started on July 4, 1776, when John Hancock signed the paper for our freedom. If we didn't have the freedom we have today, wouldn't have the stuff we have today like guns, Bibles, Christian schools. There is a lot more stuff we wouldn’t have, but that would take pages and pages, so I will just continue with what I have. What we do have for freedom is religion, what we say, school, gun, The Bill of Rights. Another gift in America is our religion. If we didn't have this freedom we wouldn't have what we

    “Give me liberty, or give me death!” Patrick Henry’s famous words still remain in history to influence our country, but many Americans generally neglect this phrase. We often take our freedom for granted without understanding how our Founding Fathers fought for our liberty from Britain. As Americans, we should respect our country and the freedom and rights given to us. We shouldn’t take this for granted because so many people around the world are unfortunate to not have this gift that most of us were born with or given.…

    The belief of many was that freedom was an English birthright and the British Empire as the world’s sole repository of freedom helped recast imperial wars against Catholic France and Spain as struggles between liberty and tyranny, a definition widely disseminated in the colonies as well as England itself. In the American Revolution, no word was more frequently invoked that “liberty.” There were liberty trees, liberty poles, and even the Sons and Daughters of Liberty. Liberty then was more than an idea; it was a passion for many. Thomas Paine put it best in his everlasting book, Common Sense:…

    The freedoms that we solely possess are the freedoms that God had bestowed upon us the moment we were born into this life. The freedom of speech and the freedom to choose between right and wrong, and to suffer the wrath if we choose wrongly. Through the Mayflower Compact, Declaration of Independence, and theories of elder and modern analysts will prove that our nation had the fabrication of men with a background of faith and belief in a higher power. No, not every founding father was a Christian, but many contributors to the argument of “christian nation or myth” say that there is little evidence of the founding of our country to be based…

    These freedoms let us have a more relaxing life without anyone to command us to do certain things. We could choose to go to England's church, a different church, or have no religion at all. You wouldn't have to pay taxes to government you don't even believe in. You have the freedom to own a farm with no one taking your money because you would be free from England's rule after you win the war. As a Patriot, we can be what we want, and believe in what we want.…

    The philosophical ideals embodied by the Declaration of Independence declared that all men "are created equal" and therefore everyone had the same rights. As a former South Carolina slave, I was so glad to hear this. For once I was hopeful that maybe after all; I could still have a chance to be free. Furthermore, the Declaration of Independence stated that every person had "unalienable rights [which included the right to] life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness." All I could think about was going out into the world, doing whatever I wanted, seeing my family, and working for myself instead of others. I could finally have my own things and be happy. As time passed by, my hopes slowly started to fade, I had not heard a thing about my freedom and I was certainly not happy. I was still trapped in the plantations, working hard for…
