'We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed, by their Creator, with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.'The practical application of this book review of Skousen's educated wisdom is to leverage "We, The People's" knowledge to easily expose ignorance, anarchy and tyranny, and hold the government accountable.
As a brief precursor to
the overview video
below, it is
convenient to show the godly and biblical structure that our founders
embedded in our founding documents and in the design of our government.
This pyramid picture recreated from a CrossExamined.org
TV seminar gives inspiration to the essential and important "line
of authority" for "The People's Law".
It also explains the source for
the "unalienable rights" that have
never been so esteemed nor protected in all of history.
These two ideas explain Skousen's subtitle:
"A MIRACLE That Changed The World".

| This picture is from page 24 of Cleon Skousen's book. It shows graphically how the American Founders positioned the Federal Government in the center of the scale from ANARCHY (NO LAW) on the right to TYRANNY (RULER'S LAW i.e dictatorship) on the left. It also shows the 13 Colonial state governments just below the federal level; plus, the hierarchy of the governments all the way to the family. | ||

This picture (right) is also from Skousen's book. It shows
the 3 Headed Eagle that represents the "separation of powers"."During the creation of the Constitution, James Madison proposed a 'separation of powers,' dividing the government into three separate branches - an idea that mirrored the three functions of governance ascribed to the Lord in Isaiah 33:22: 'For the Lord is our Judge [ judicial ], the Lord is our lawgiver [ legislative ], the Lord is our king [ executive ].' " The Attack on America's Christian Heritage , Coral Ridge Ministries, August 2008 [ Isaiah wrote about 700 BC ! And yet the "separation" principle wasn't applied until 2,400 years later. ] |

Tyranny(-x) [-1 thru -28] FREEDOM PRINCIPLE Violations + RELIGIOUS PRINCIPLE Violations [-1 thru - 27+ ] Anarchy(-x)
Ans. The RAC Index can be used to identify that the "UN Convention on the Rights of the Child" treaty (CRC) is invalid because it violates THE FREEDOM PRINCIPLES: -3., -4., -6., -7., -9., -10., -14. (where 'family' is property), -21., -25., and -26..= [ T(-10)]. And THE RELIGIOUS PRINCIPLES of The Fundamental Principles of The USA's default religion (-5) and The Unalienable Rights Principles: -1., -4., -5., -8., -13., -17., -18.= [A(-12)]. Therefore The RAC Index for the CRC Treaty would be additive [Tyranny violations T(-10) ] + [Anarchy violations A(-12) ] = -22. This implies that not only is the treaty invalid on any ONE COUNT but that it is terribly wrong on the -22 TOTAL violations !2.) What would a 100% Pristine Constitutional executive order, judicial decree, bureaucratic mandate, law, treaty or amendment look like?
One of the benefits of The RAC Index is that it helps focus on the truth and directs the reader, user and reformer in the direction of the Constitution - neither left nor right but 100% Constitutional.
Ans. When The RAC Index numbers are added [ Tyranny(-0) ] + [ Anarchy(-0) ] and = 0, it means it's 100% Constitutional.
T(-0) + A(-0) = 0 = 100% Pristine Constitutional Policy. [Total Liberty Protections]. It can be used as a new way to gage the progress of The People's Reformation or of The Reformers For A Pristine Constitution.
"Man ... must necessarily be subject to the laws of his Creator.. This will of his Maker is called the law of nature.... This law of nature...is of course superior to any other.... No human laws are of any validity, if contrary to this: and such of them as are valid derive all their force...from this original." - Sir William Blackstone (Eminent English Jurist)
Man is superior to animals: "Man is distinguished, not only by his reason, but by this singular passion from other animals, which is a lust of the mind, that by a perseverance of delight in the continued and indefatigable generation of knowledge, exceeds the short vehemence of any carnal pleasure." Thomas Hobbes's , Leviathan :
"SO DISTANT IS AMERICA today from its founding principles that it is difficult to precisely describe the nature of American government." Mark R. Levin Liberty and Tyranny 2008, pg 193., Threshold Editions.
Real conservative activism if it is centered in truth never has to be reinvented for example: pro-life is still pro life whether talking about abortion, embryonic stem cells, or euthanasia. See also: Absolute Truth, Hisways USA, Inc.

THE
28 FREEDOM PRINCIPLES.
(Anti tyranny) 1. The only reliable basis for sound government and just human relations is Natural Law. 2. A free people cannot survive under a republican constitution unless they remain virtuous and morally strong. 3. The most promising method of securing a virtuous and morally stable people is to elect virtuous leaders. 4. Without [The Christian] religion the government of a free people cannot be maintained. 5. All things were created by God, therefore upon Him all mankind are equally dependent, and to Him they are equally responsible. 6. All men are created equal. 7. The proper role of government is to protect equal rights, not provide equal things. 8. Men are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights. 9. To protect man’s rights, God has revealed certain principles of divine law. 10. The God-given right to govern is vested in the sovereign authority of the whole people. 11. The majority of the people may alter or abolish a government which has become tyrannical. 12. The United States of America shall be a republic. 13. A constitution should be structured to permanently protect the people from the human frailties of their rulers. 14. Life and liberty are secure only so long as the right of property is secure 15. The highest level of prosperity occurs when there is a free market economy and a minimum of government regulations. 16. The government should be separated into three branches: legislative, executive, and judicial. 17. A system of checks and balances should be adopted to prevent the abuse of power. 18. The Unalienable Rights from the people are most likely to be preserved if the principles of government are set forth in a written constitution. 19. Only limited and carefully defined powers should be delegated to government, all others being retained in the people. 20. Efficiency and dispatch require government to operate according to the will of the majority, but constitutional provisions must be made to protect the rights of the minority. 21. Strong local self-government is the keystone to preserving human freedom. 22. A free people should be governed by law and not the whims of men. 23. A free society cannot survive as a republic without a broad program of general education. 24. A free people will not survive unless they stay strong. 25. "Peace, commerce, and honest friendship with all nations: entangling alliances with none." 26. The core unit which determines the strength of any society is the family; therefore, the government should foster and protect its integrity. 27. The burden of debt is as destructive to freedom as subjugation by conquest. 28. The United States has a manifest destiny to be an example and a blessing to the entire human race.

"The RAC Index" is not a substitute for this truth regarding the nation: II Chronicles 7:14 "If my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven and forgive their sin and heal their land."
1. Any power that can be abused will be abused. - Tyranny Law #1
