ethos
By saying that the declaration’s signers are sensible men who are not taking the change lightly :)
The flags, created to fly on the first naval forces under control of General Washington said "Appeal to Heaven." They were essentially saying that in order to beat the overwhelming force of the British empire, the Americans would to ask for divine intervention. That is mostly true, but either statement was seen on flags during the Revolution. However, the statement "Appeal to God" had a more deeper meaning than simply asking for divine intervention. Just as in the current American justice system of appeals, each appeal is to a higher court than the previous one. Injustice by the British could only be "appealed" to God as the court system in place was run by the British (an unjust system). If man's laws cause injustice, then the only "appeal" can be made to a higher power than man. Therefore, an "appeal to God or Heaven" was more of a derivation of their own divine right to independence than praying for intervention. This notion of the colonists divine right to freedom is what gave the saying its strength and conviction.

The Farmers, the laborers, the artisans, and the small shopkeepers.
They're an uneducated lot and it's best to appeal to their passions and emotions
The drafters of the Declaration of Independence appeal to ethos, or credibility, by describing themselves as "prudent and reasonable men." This establishes their character and integrity, suggesting that their decision to declare independence is based on careful consideration and rational thought rather than impulsiveness or emotion. By positioning themselves as rational actors, they aim to gain the trust of their audience, implying that their actions are justified and grounded in a thoughtful analysis of their circumstances. This appeal enhances the legitimacy of their claims and the seriousness of their intentions.
Lucas compares the portrayal of the colonists in the Declaration of Independence to that of a victim in a narrative of oppression. He highlights how the colonists are depicted as wronged individuals fighting against tyranny, framing their struggle as a moral battle for justice and self-determination. This comparison emphasizes the emotional appeal and justification for their quest for independence.
Yes because they were declaring themselves independent and were no longer considered a part of the British Empire
