WHY IS THERE A UNIVERSAL DECLARATION OF HUMAN RIGHTS?

Adopted by General Assembly resolution 217 A (III) of 10 December 1948 (UN, 2018)

“The Declaration consists of a preamble and 30 articles, setting forth the human rights and fundamental freedoms to which all men and women, everywhere in the world, are entitled, without any discrimination.  

Article 1, which lays down the philosophy on which the Declaration is based, reads: All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights.

They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood. The article thus defines the underlying assumptions of the Declaration: that the right to liberty and equality is man’s birthright and cannot be alienated: and that, because man is a rational and moral being.

He is different from other creatures on earth and therefore entitled to individual rights and freedoms which other creatures do not enjoy.

Article 2, which sets out the fundamental principle of equality and nondiscrimination as regards the enjoyment of human rights and fundamental freedoms, forbids “distinction of any kind, such as race, colour, sex, language, religion, political or other opinion, national or social origin, property, birth or other status”.  

Article 3, the first cornerstone of the Declaration, proclaims the right to life, liberty, and security of person -a right essential to the enjoyment of all other rights.

This article introduces articles 4 to 21, in which other civil and political rights are set out, including freedom from slavery and servitude; freedom from torture

and cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment;

the right to recognition everywhere as a person before the law;

the right to an adequate judicial remedy;

freedom from arbitrary arrest, detention or exile;

the right to a fair trial and public hearing by an independent and impartial tribunal;

the right to be presumed innocent until proved guilty; freedom from arbitrary interference with privacy, family, home or correspondence;

freedom of movement and residence;

the right of asylum; the right to a nationality;

the right to marry and to found a family;

the right to own property;

freedom of thought, conscience and religion;

freedom of opinion and expression;

the right to peaceful assembly and association;

and the right to take part in the government of one’s country and to equal access to public service in one’s country.”

USSR-RUSSIA HUMAN RIGHTS QUESTION?

That is the core reason for the mystery of conflict and wars. It is willful lawlessness and disrespect for the sanctity of life. Joseph Stalin’s life would have been much more meaningful and rewarding to him eternally as a human being made in the image of God if he had stayed at the seminary, where he started his theological studies.

Potential to know what the will of God for him and humanity in general. He could have also found personal salvation and become righteous before God, living in submissive obedience to the Creator of life through the redemption of Yeshua Hamashiach.  

 LENIN A JEW?

 “The declassification of documents since the collapse of the Soviet Communist tyranny in 1991 has brought irrefutable proof that Lenin’s maternal great-grandfather was a shtetl Jew named Moshko Blank. Whether or not Lenin himself was aware of this piece of information is uncertain. Still, by the time of his death in 1924, his sister had possession of the facts— and, by order of the Central Committee of the Communist Party, was forced to keep them secret. The order held firm until the dissolution of the Soviet Union in the early 1990’ s”. (Wisse, 2018) My Jewish learning.com  

KARL MARX A JEW?

“Marx was ethnically Jewish. His maternal grandfather was a Dutch rabbi, while his paternal line had supplied Trier’s rabbis since 1723, a role taken by his grandfather Meier Halevi Marx”.( Encyclopedia,Karl Marx, 2018)

Karl Marx, with Jewish ancestry, would have served people much better by believing in the teaching of the Torah instead of being a false prophet of humanism, teaching the people of the world atheism. But, unfortunately, the Bolsheviks failed their calling in life by their obstinate self-will, willfully trusting their understanding more than the written word of God. That is the difference.

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.” Proverbs 3: 5-6. (NIV)  

SURE FOUNDATIONS

The Spirit of the Natural Law is a sure foundation for the rule of law and eternal law principles respecting societies. Without accepting the Spirit of the Natural Law principles, it is impossible to have legal principles for International Law. Only the Spirit of the Natural Law provides true justice impartial to all people worldwide.  

People that deny the Spirit of the Natural Law do so because their will and their spirits are not willing to submit to the impartial Spirit of the God-given Natural Law principles.

The truth, similarly, a convicted lawbreaker will often repress or deny having broken any laws. Many simply will not accept the Spirit of the law that commands the human will to submit to the Spirit of the Natural Law’s transcendent origin, Creator of Life.

 The same point was made earlier; the law is not a material entity; it is immaterial. Transcendental Spirit of the Natural Law. In the beginning, Elohim, the Creator of life. Created the material world according to the Spiritual reality Law outside time and space.  

Meaning to use the intellect and the will to make the right choice, consciously to do the right thing. It is a matter of realization and awareness to make an intelligent, higher conscious choice in a finite material world. Mostly, it is not a tug-a-war between the human will and human law, but rather a battle between human intellect, will, and the human carnal nature, pulling each way and not giving due respect to the Spirit of the Natural Law.  

The intellect should be informed and enlightened to accept the knowledge of the more significant, the prior, Spirit of the Natural Law.

The old analogy of the cart, the driver, or the horse?

Which entity acts as the engine?

Which has a more significant role in the steering?

The metaphysical Spirit of the Law, or the subjective human will? What is its logic? Which has priority? Which is secondary?  

Moreover, what purpose does it serve? For example, do spiritual laws serve random human behavior? Alternatively, does the random human behavior learn to submit to the metaphysical Spirit of the Natural Law?

Moreover, learn the proper priority and submit the human will to God’s will to the higher priority order. It is like a small Copernican Revolution of the discovery of the other.

The other being greater. The other being the will and the Spirit of Elohim.  It is a question of information, knowledge, understanding, and cognitive intelligence.

A knowledge problem, with the intellect, that drives the individual self-determination.

Almost 2000 years ago, 12 disciples made a free choice; after they were asked to follow Yeshua from Nazarene, they were invited to follow Jesus. The 12 to be disciples intuitively sensed that it was an invitation of a lifetime worth taking. So, they committed themselves to follow the teaching Rabbi called Yeshua. It changed their lives forever.   The global community has always been a violent place, ruled by violent individuals. It is no different in the last 100 years. They do not accept the Spirit of the Natural Law is a reliable guide for civil government.

Many dictator leaders have attempted to shut down the Spirit of the Natural Law and re-write the meta-narrative of the rules for human existence, according to the dictator’s political ambitions, self-seeking glory, egomaniac fantasies, military power trips, and other imaginary extremities, like global domination.  

CLEAR LOGICAL THINKING EXPLAINED

Quote: “The whole purpose of reasoning, of logic, is to arrive at the truth of things.” “This is often an arduous task, as truth can sometimes be painfully elusive. But not to pursue truth would be absurd, since it is the only thing that gives meaning to all our endeavors.”

“It would be equally absurd to suppose that truth is something forever to be pursued but never to be attained, for that renders our activity purposeless, which is to say, irrational, and turns truth into a chimera.” (McInerny, 2004) Being Logical: A Guide to Good Thinking.  

WHY DO HUMAN BEINGS DECEIVE ANIMALS?

Human deceptive methods are used for trapping animals and fish. The fish are caught by deception to make the fish believe that bait is harmless when there is a hidden hook to snare the fish. During the stone age, wild animals were hunted, trapped for food and furry skins.

 It was beneficial for the survival of humanity, especially in the Northern Arctic regions of the globe. People that lived on the Pacific Islands would not need to hunt animals for their furry skins. There was no need for such extravagance; palm tree leaves skirt would suffice in the tropics. The fruits of the trees, the root vegetables of the land, and the fish and seafood of the ocean were nutritious and plentiful for people to survive on. It reveals how humans treat animals with respect or disrespect. The quality that humans treat animals is learned and can also become part of human traits.

Animals have character traits such as the adaptable, shy and timid, laid back, happy, independent, and confident. Animals deserve to be respected.

It is also commanded so in the Holy Scriptures.

“For six days, you are to work. But on the seventh day, you are to rest, so that your ox and donkey can rest, and your slave-girl’s son and the foreigner be renewed.”  

Exodus 23: 12. (CJB).  

OBJECTIVE FACTS

“There are two basic types of objective facts, things, and events. A “thing” is an actually existing entity, animal, vegetable, or mineral. To the subject experiencing it, a subjective fact is self-evident under normal circumstances. However, through such mechanisms as self-delusion or rationalization, a person could fail to get straight a fact even about himself.”

“We all tend to favor our ideas, which is natural enough. They are, after all, in a sense our very own babies, the conceptions of our minds. However, conception is possible in the thinking subject only because of the subject’s encounter with the world. Our ideas owe their existence, ultimately to things outside and independent of the mind, to which they refer: objective facts.”

“Our ideas are clear, and our understanding of them is clear, only to the extent that we keep constant tabs on the things to which they refer. The focus must always be on the originating sources of our ideas in the objective world. We do not really understand our own ideas if we suppose them to be self-generating, that is, not owing their existence to extramental realities.”
