I found three Enlightenment ideas found in the declaration of independence that I know are correct. First Idea, is that all people are entitled to certain rights just by virtue of being human. Second, Is the belief that a government's legitimacy comes from the consent of the governed. Last but not least, A government's main purpose is to protect the right of the people.
