The whole document isn't there to give us rights it is there to tell the govt that we have these rights and they are supposed to uphold them. That is why it says endowed by their creator. Whatever force a person thinks of as God, that has given them the rights.
The declaration of independence says creator & calls upon the equality of man & for good reason.
The declaration of independence was written as a list of grievances endured by the colonists which justified their refutation of British rule. A rule by Devine Right which says that the word of the King IS the word of God. The Constitution is a body of law. God may inspire & influence the words of men but God cannot judge a man in this world. The law must be plain and without equivocation.
