"From page 13 of the Project 2025 book. They're re-defining "pursuit of happiness" as an explicitly religious "pursuit of blessedless." 

"Our Constitution grants each of us the liberty to do not what we want, but what we ought."

Wow."

    "Quote from page 13 of the Project 2025 book: 
    
    "When the Founders spoke of “pursuit of Happiness,” what they meant might be understood today as in essence “pursuit of Blessedness.” That is, an individual must be free to live as his Creator ordained—to flourish. Our Constitution grants each of us the liberty to do not what we want, but what we ought. This pursuit of the good life is found primarily in family—marriage, children, Thanksgiving dinners, and the like. Many find happiness through their work. Think of dedicated teach- ers or health care professionals you know, entrepreneurs or plumbers throwing themselves into their businesses—anyone who sees a job well done as a personal reward. Religious devotion and spirituality are the greatest sources of happiness""
