America on Parr Stephen Parr

In Chapter 6 of our series on The Second Sentence of the Declaration of Independence, we look at the most famous phrase in American history, "Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness."

We continue our deep dive into the various clauses contained in the Second Sentence. Chapter 5 deals with "that they are endowed by the Creator with certain unalienable rights..."

This is Chapter 4 of The Second Sentence. We talk about the phrase "all Men are created equal..." from the Declaration of Independence and explain why the rest of the Second Sentence depends upon this clause being true.

With Chapter 3, we begin a deep dive into the various clauses in the Second Sentence of the Declaration of Independence. It's important to understand the whole meaning of the Second Sentence so that we can learn to apply this logic to the political battles of today.

This is Chapter 2 in my podcast series, The Second Sentence. Before we start getting into the meat of what's in the Second Sentence, we'll discuss what is behind the first sentence of the Declaration and how it sets the stage for what's to come.
