My legacy

I'm not goin' lie, I was one of those "brilliant thinkers" who had many opinions about society. Hundreds of years after I died, my ideas still influence people today! I was was one of the first thinkers to embrace the social contract as well as natural law. By sacrificing a small chunk of our freedom, people can live in the good of society (instead of that messed up one y'all live in and that one is on you guys). I believe people are equal. No matter the circumstances or  the background of a person should push them down the social ladder. Although my beliefs and ideas didn't necessarily make a huge impact, but my ideas laid out a base for future philosophers.

  1. Very informative way of putting what you did out there, I see you have mastered the modern language much better than I will look to you for further assistance. Nice to know you also contributed to the freedom this country now has.

  2. I see that we both had an impact on natural law, and believed alot of what I stood for. Like you may have said you may not have made a huge impact I truly think your impact os bigger than you are aware of.

  3. I have to agree with you on that one. It feels good to know that you left a lasting impression on the world. I think the people in our society is bringing us down, and leading us to the wrong path. They think of themselves more than the people that need help.
