    God given rights?

    Didn’t the British leave Britain for America to get away from the church and give themselves their own rights?

      In the Church of England, God’s authority is channeled through the monarch, similarly to how in Catholicism it is channeled through the Pope.

      If you make a new deal with Him, you can get Him to give you different rights.
