Question

“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.—That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, —That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.” The theme of this passage from the Declaration of Independence is best described as:
the people must remove any government that destroys rights
certain truths are easily understood
life, liberty, and happiness are the most important rights
new government brings safety and happiness

Answer 1

After reading the passage, I've been battling between answers A. and C. I have decided that the best choice would be A, since the passage clearly states that it is up to the people to protect their rights. Hope this helps! ^_^
