The passage below is from the Declaration of Independence. To secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just
powers from the consent of the governed
[W]henever 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
According to this passage, what is the main purpose of government?
O to promote popular religious beliefs
O to ensure the rights of the government
O to protect the rights of its people
O to glorify the nation

it is a part of john locke's natural rights popular during the age of enlightenment that people had inalienable rights to life, liberty and property. this was reflected by thomas jefferson in his declaration of independence as rights to life,liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

another line in the declaration of independence is that people have certain rights just because they are human. humans are capable of obeying the three natural rights john locke mentioned making them governable by these laws and therefore entitled to these rights as well.
