Yes, the Bill of Rights ensures civil liberties like speech and religion, but this is not the reason it was created.

The recently released constitution seemed a bit intrusive to the democrat-republicans, so the democrat-republicans began to start up a fuss for state rights (rights the federalist government cannot control, like civil liberties). So the government decided to create the Bill of rights mainly to satisfy the needs of the pestering democrat-republicans.

Another reason for it's creation was to accurately define what freedom would look like in the United States. The men who wrote it made measurements and thought deeply about the freedoms the citizens should have. The Bill of Rights was created to make it certain that as the country grew and expanded, these 10 individual rights would never be violated.

The bill of Rights is the name given to the first ten amendments to the US Constitution. They were all written necessarily to ensure the rights of the people.

To clearly state what is a given right to humans in our country and what is clearly the role of Government.

These are what we consider basic human rights.
