	William Blake's Relevance to the Modern World
		This is very similar to the fundamental rights of man espoused in the Declaration of Independence, which states that "all men are created equal" because they are "endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights" (Declaration 10-20).
		In The Marriage of Heaven and Hell he wrote "Prisons are built with stones of Law, Brothels with bricks of Religion" and "As the caterpillar chooses the fairest leaves to lay her eggs on, so the priest lays his curse on the fairest joys" ("Proverbs" 19; "Proverbs" 20).
		Blake believes that orthodox Christians, in part because of their denial of earthly joy, are actually worshiping Satan, which is to say that they are in Error (Damon 344-345; Damon xi).
