The Preamble quote that most specifically refers to natural rights: "[T]hey are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”

John Locke was one of the first of the Enlightenment era philosophers.  The Enlightenment's emphasis on reason was in contrast to superstition and traditional beliefs.  The Scientific Revolution had shown that there are natural laws in place in the physical world and in the universe at large.  Applying similar principles to matters like government and society, using reason will guide us to the best ways to operate politically so as to create the most beneficial conditions for society.  This included a conviction that all human beings have certain natural rights which are to be protected and preserved.    Locke's ideal was one that promoted individual freedom and equal rights and opportunity for all.  Each individual's well-being (life, health, liberty, possessions) should be served by the way government and society are arranged.

How would followers of the three philosophical traditions in China react to the idea that “all-men are created equal”?
andrew-mc [135]
First you must look at what a 'philosophical tradition' is! It is best described as philosophy- the love of knowledge and learning, and traditions- something passed on from predecessor to the modern generation. These 3 main traditions are also known as the religions Confucianism, Daoism, and Buddhism, strictly followed in China, almost as one. Within these faiths are strong moral values that the Chinese follow; stay in good standing in society with those around you, keep a deep and pure respect for others, and to have a connection to the earth, which sustains all life. Now to tie this knowledge into the question, the Chinese believe whole-heartedly in equality, as shown by these traditions. So, they would react positively, since "all men are created equal" is basically the whole backbone of the way they thrive as a civilization. I hope this made sense :)
