For the Bill of Rights of the US Constitution.

For example, notice how the Virginia Declaration of Rights served as a model for the 1st Amendment (the first of the amendments that make up the Bill of Rights):

Virginia Declaration of Rights, Section 12:

That the freedom of the press is one of the greatest bulwarks of liberty, and can never be restrained but by despotick governments.

Virginia Declaration of Rights, Section 16:

That religion, or the duty which we owe to our CREATOR and the manner of discharging it, can be directed only by reason and conviction, not by force or violence; and therefore all men are equally entitled to the free exercise of religion, according to the dictates of conscience; and that it is the mutual duty of all to practice Christian forbearance, love, and charity towards each other.

1st Amendment, US Constitution:

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

If achieving happiness is not the goal of moral behavior ... what IS?

madreJ [45]

The correct answer is Universal conduct, based on Universal values

Happiness is the state in which a rational being is found in the world for whom, in all his existence, everything goes according to his desire and will; consequently, it presupposes the agreement of nature with all the ends of this being, and simultaneously with the essential foundation of determining its will. Now the moral law, as a law of freedom, obliges by means of foundations of determination, which must be entirely independent of nature and its agreement with our faculty of desire (as an engine). However, the rational agent that acts in the world is not simultaneously the cause of the world and of nature itself. Thus, in the moral law, there is no basis for a necessary connection between morality and happiness, provided with it, in a being that, being part of the world, depends on it; this being, precisely for this reason, cannot voluntarily be the cause of this nature nor, as far as happiness is concerned, make it, by its own strength, perfectly coincide with its own practical principles.
