Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines a proposed constitutional amendment prohibiting states from establishing a religion and preventing the free exercise of any. The author bases this in Americaâs founding principles of religious freedom and the inherent conflict between democratic government and theocracy. Expanding on historical examples of religious persecution, the author argues that this amendment is vital to protect against foreign religious influence undermining the countryâs democratic institutions and civil liberties. While acknowledging the benefits of religious instruction, the author contends that morality, rather than tenets of faith, should form the basis of public education. They conclude that safeguarding religious freedom requires strict separation between church and state, making this book a crucial read for anyone concerned about the role of religion in society and the preservation of democratic values.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book unpacks the origins of human rights, arguing that they are not created by the law but rather emanate from the natural dispositions of the human mind. The author posits that every person has the right to exist and the right to happiness, and that these rights can only be fully realized when society respects individual liberty and self-determination. The book draws on insights from phrenology, the study of the brain and its relation to mental faculties, to demonstrate that human beings are naturally endowed with a range of desires, emotions, and intellectual capacities that ought to be nurtured and protected. The author contends that true government should be limited to enforcing these natural rights and ensuring that no individual's pursuit of happiness infringes on the rights of others. By examining the fundamental principles of human rights and their relationship to the structure of government, this book offers a compelling vision of a just and equitable society that respects the inherent dignity of every individual.

Hurlbut, E.P. Essays on Human Rights and Their Political Guaranties. New York: Greeley & McElrath, 1845. 219 pp. Fascimile reprint Fred B. Rothman/W.S. Hein, 1999. Publisher's cloth bound hardcover. Fine. $45. * This influential antebellum treatise, authored by Elisha Powell Hurlbut (1807-1889)-a prominent attorney and future New York Supreme Court Judge-serves as a forceful defense of natural law over utilitarian theory. Published in a landmark year for American letters that saw the debut of Frederick Douglass's Narrative and Poe's "The Raven," Hurlbut's work distinguished itself by its early and explicit advocacy for the legal equality of the sexes. His arguments notably impacted the burgeoning women's rights movement; Elizabeth Cady Stanton was deeply influenced by Hurlbut's theories on female enfranchisement and property rights, continuing to seek copies of this specific text as late as 1876. Across ten chapters, the work systematically addresses the origin of human rights, the true function of government, and the "Rights of Woman," where Hurlbut refutes the common law notion of marriage as a mere civil contract and defends a woman's right to property and total divorce.
