The Declaration of Independance has "inalienable rights" these are rights endowed by our creator. This theory of natural rights first evolved from john Locke. These original rights were life, liberty and property. However they were later changed by Thomas Jefferson in the publication of the Declaration of Independence to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Many theories of rights before this were inherited from The Bible's teachings. The bible expresses basic morals therefore some of the moral rights that we have in our society have evolved from the bible.
