They should be able to secure the life and property of the civilians. Just a minimal amount of power, so problems don't arise and cause an insecure living environment.

These rights also call for a high priority of individual preservation, but with that, there is a need to consider others as your equal. Under the theory of natural rights, there are special rights, they can be consensual or non consensual. He wrote multiple essays on the Law of Nature, which is a basic rule of moral code in which every man must follow. ]]> 2019-09-29 23:24:48 UTC https://padlet.com/olivia_beek/ye4mo6bgykoh/wish/391099004 Second Treatise olivia_beek https://padlet.com/olivia_beek/ye4mo6bgykoh/wish/391099029 The Second Treatise is a political ideology written by John Locke. In this writing he goes over many topics, for example state of nature. He envisions state of nature as a way of life were there is perfect equality, and everyone has the freedom to do what they think is right without the consent of another. Locke also writes about paternal power, in which he states that children are under control of their parents until they are mature enough. Another one of the multiple topics he covers is slavery, which he disagrees with. ]]> 2019-09-29 23:25:01 UTC https://padlet.com/olivia_beek/ye4mo6bgykoh/wish/391099029 Religion olivia_beek https://padlet.com/olivia_beek/ye4mo6bgykoh/wish/391099035 John Locke believed in and promoted religious tolerance, as well as the separation of church and state.

The Constitution states "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.” Which is very similar to what John Lock said about considering others as your equal, and the government protecting your natural rights of life, liberty, and property. ]]> 2019-09-29 23:25:16 UTC https://padlet.com/olivia_beek/ye4mo6bgykoh/wish/391099047 olivia_beek https://padlet.com/olivia_beek/ye4mo6bgykoh/wish/391100114 2019-09-29 23:34:00 UTC https://padlet.com/olivia_beek/ye4mo6bgykoh/wish/391100114 olivia_beek https://padlet.com/olivia_beek/ye4mo6bgykoh/wish/391100199 2019-09-29 23:34:46 UTC https://padlet.com/olivia_beek/ye4mo6bgykoh/wish/391100199 Citation olivia_beek https://padlet.com/olivia_beek/ye4mo6bgykoh/wish/391134734 Moseley, Alexander. “John Locke: Political Philosophy.” Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy, www.iep.utm.edu/locke-po/#SH6a.
