The Declaration of Independence most famous sentence reads: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, 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." Even today, this inspirational language expresses a profound commitment to human equality.

Write at least 3 universal ideas or big concepts encompassed in that sentence. Indicate whether you agree with the big ideas while noting the impact on today's society ?
