the new consititution for a new america there comes a time when it becomes necessary to dissolve the old ways connecting us to the past and begin a new way of thinking that separates knowledge from belief , truth from myth , the laws of nature from faith in a divine presence , so mankind can rise from the ashes to once again assume among the powers of earth and prosper from the inalienable right that everyone is born equal and deserves the liberty of life , and the pursuit of happiness therefore , a new society , a new beginning , can not solely be founded on the moral doctrines or structured legislature of any legal institution , system of belief , or form of government responsible for past atrocities against mankind through either religious persecution , administrative corruption , the bonds of slavery , or any other form of oppression inflicted on man or woman , at any time throughout our history however , we will not abandon any positive contributions from the past proven compatible with present conditions and surroundings , and no matter what harsh measures we may take to prosper over the land , we will no longer be beasts that just sleep and feed and shall endeavor as a species to treat each other with the same decency and respect we all deserve , not because we are told to do so , but because it is the right thing to do thereby , giving us the cause , the will , the strength , and the means to find our purpose forever united together in everlasting peace .
