Blackstone’s Commentaries<\/em>: “… the law of nature and the law of revelation”
\n<\/b><\/span>
\nIn the decade before the first shots of the American Revolution (War for American Independence) were fired on the green (common) at Lexington (Mass.) on April 19, 1775, English jurist William Blackstone<\/b><\/a> published his four books of Commentaries on the Laws of Englan<\/i><\/b>d <\/i><\/strong><\/a>(1765-1769)<\/a>.<\/strong>\u00a0 “The Commentaries<\/i><\/a> were long regarded as the leading work on the development of English law and played a role in the development of the American legal system.”\u00a0 “The Commentaries<\/i> are often quoted as the definitive pre-Revolutionary<\/a> source of common law by United States courts<\/a>.”\u00a0 “For decades, a study of the Commentaries<\/i> was required reading for all first year law students.” Blackstone’s Commentaries were used before, and for approximately 100 years after, the American Revolution (1776-1783) to train lawyers in the United States, including<\/u> at the University of South Carolina School of Law during part of the Reconstruction Era (1867-1877) after the USC Law School opened in 1867.
\n<\/i><\/b>
\n<\/span>The University of South Carolina Law School curriculum included Blackstone’s Commentaries <\/i>at times during period 1867-1877:<\/b><\/p>\n

“The University of South Carolina School of Law was established as one of ten academic schools when South Carolina College was reorganized as the University of South Carolina in 1865 and 1866.\u00a0 The Board of Trustees elected twenty-seven year old South Carolina attorney Alexander Cheves Haskell as the first professor of law and the law school opened on October 7, 1867. Professor Haskell developed his own system of leading the junior class through a course in<\/b> Blackstone’s Commentaries<\/i><\/u><\/b> and the senior class through a course on Stephens’ Pleading<\/i>. …” [ continued ]<\/p>\n

\n<\/b>
\n“From the opening of the law school in October 1867 until the death of Professor Melton on December 4, 1875, classes were held in the University Library, now the South Caroliniana Library, and DeSaussure College. … The Board of Trustees chose Franklin J. Moses,<\/b> Sr., the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of South Carolina,<\/b> as Melton’s successor.\u00a0 Under Moses<\/b> the curriculum of the law school was modified to place a heavy emphasis on Blackstone’s Commentaries<\/i><\/u><\/b> and Kent’s Lectures<\/i>.”<\/p>\n

\n
\nINTRODUCTION
\n<\/i>Sect. 2:\u00a0 Of the Nature of Laws in General<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n

“The doctrines thus delivered we call the revealed or divine law,<\/span> and they are to be <\/strong>found only <\/strong>in the holy scriptures.”<\/strong>
\n<\/span>
\n“Yet undoubtedly the revealed law<\/span> is of infinitely more authenticity than that moral system, which <\/strong>is framed by ethical writers, and denominated the natural law. <\/span> Because one is the law of nature, <\/span><\/strong>expressly declared so to be by God himself;<\/span> the other is only what, by the assistance of human reason, we imagine to be that law.<\/span> If we could be as certain of the latter as we are of the former, <\/strong>both would have an equal authority; but, till then, they can never be put in any competition together.”<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

“Upon these two foundations, the law of nature<\/span> and the law of revelation,<\/span> depend all human laws<\/u>; <\/strong>that is to say, no human laws should be suffered to contradict these<\/u>.”<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n<\/span>In other words, Blackstone’s Commentaries,<\/i> which were used before, and for 100 years after, the American Revolution (1776-1783) to train lawyers in the United States, said “all human laws” are to be inviolate of the Laws of Nature<\/u> and the Word of God<\/u>, the Bible<\/u> !!!<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

“To instance in the case of murder:<\/span> this is expressly forbidden by the divine,<\/span> and demonstrably by the natural law;<\/span> and, from these prohibitions, arises the true unlawfulness of this crime. … Nay, if any human law<\/span> should allow or injoin us to commit it, we are bound to transgress that human law,<\/span>\u00a0or else we must offend both the natural<\/span> and the divine.<\/span><\/strong>“<\/strong><\/p>\n

PERSONHOOD IS ABOLITION
\n<\/a><\/b>– Personhood is Abolition<\/u>. Here in South Carolina, we have advocated passage
\nof State personhood legislation continuously for over 24 years since 1998
\n[ History of Personhood Legislation in South Carolina ( 1998 – 2021 )<\/b><\/a> ].
\n– The current legislation in the 2021-2022 SC Legislature is called the Personhood Act of South Carolina (S.381<\/a><\/strong> and S.1335<\/a><\/strong> \/ H.3568<\/a><\/strong> and H<\/a>.5401<\/a><\/strong>).
\n– South Carolina Personhood legislation up through 2021 has recognized the Creator God-given, unalienable right to life of every human being as a “person” beginning at fertilization, in SC law.<\/p>\n
