Social Principles

I agree with the social prinicples of Locke more than anything else because I agree with the principle of natural rights (life, liberty, property). In my last blog I identified my so called "trinity" (God, myself, and school) and there is some overlap here pertaining to the "myself" catagory. I feel as though I cannot properly take care of myself if my natural rights are violated. I also believe I have a right to worship God and the right to an education. With this perspective I can say that it is possible to live by both my personal principles as well the principles of Locke as well. I can do this by exceriseing my rights BUT also respect the rights of others in the process. For example, respecting other's believes that may differ from my own in society.
