The idea of natural rights as they pertained to religion lead colonists to begin to think about independence from England is through John Locke's thoughts about human being has certain rights that should be given to them. This includes freedom, privacy, life, etc. If the government fails to protect these natural rights, chances are the people will create a revolution against them.
