Question 7
Locke's Two Treatises of Government states that the right to "life, health, liberty or possessions" (property) comes from the state of nature, where individuals have natural rights before government. The state of license is a state of chaos, laws of the land are created by government (not the source of natural rights), and the will of the monarch is not Locke's view (he opposed divine - right monarchy).
In Locke's Two Treatises of Government, the terms “omnipotent, maker, and sovereign master” are used to refer to God, as Locke's political philosophy has a theological basis where God is the creator and sovereign. Mankind, the state, or government leaders do not fit these descriptions in this context.
The Bill of Rights' Amendment I protects freedom of speech, along with freedom of religion, press, assembly, and petition. Amendment X deals with reserved powers, Amendment VI with criminal trials, and Amendment IV with search and seizure.
