Question

question 15
what are the natural rights mentioned in the declaration of independence?
a. self - government and limited government
b. life, liberty, and property
c. freedom of speech and religion
d. life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness

Explanation:

The Declaration of Independence states that all men are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. Option A refers to types of government, not natural rights. Option B has "property" which is not the phrasing in the Declaration (John Locke had life, liberty, property, but the Declaration uses "pursuit of happiness"). Option C are rights from the Bill of Rights, not the Declaration's natural rights. So the correct option is D.

Answer:

D. life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness
