You are attributing a phrase from the Declaration of Independence to john Locke. He never used those words. Either way, Locke's idea of equality was an equality of opportunity. On the other hand, Rousseau (another social contract theorist) would say equality means equality of outcome.

What The declaration of independence says all men are created equal endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights.'' what does this mean?
He wrote just what he meant that " men" were created equal. This didn't mean slaves or women.
The Declaration of Independence is a document based on the beliefs of the founding fathers and was mostly written by Thomas Jefferson. Enlightenment? At that time, the colonists were pretty fed up with taxation without representation, had been influenced by the writings of Thomas Paine...in particular "Common Sense"....and were already involved in the American Revolutionary War. If you mean enlightenment ideas of one person in particular, the main man was definitely Thomas Jefferson....Virginia gentleman.
"Consent of the governed" is a political theory stating that a government's legitimacy and moral right to use state power is, or ought to be, derived from the people or society over which that power is exercised. This theory of "consent" is historically contrasted to the divine right of kings and has often been invoked against the legitimacy of colonialism. Following John Locke's notion of a nation of "free and equal" citizens, the Founders of the United States believed that consent of the governed was the only legitimate basis upon which one "free and equal" citizen could exercise legal authority over another -- otherwise neither equal could overcome the other.

John Locke's concept of tabula rasa, or "blank slate," suggests that individuals are born without innate ideas or knowledge, and instead acquire knowledge through sensory experiences and perception. This idea implies that human development is shaped by environmental factors and personal experiences rather than predetermined traits or characteristics.
John Locke believed in natural rights, social contract theory, and the idea that individuals have the right to revolt against an unjust government. Thomas Hobbes, on the other hand, believed in a more pessimistic view of human nature, emphasizing the need for a strong central authority to maintain order and prevent chaos. Locke's worldview focused more on individual liberty and limited government, while Hobbes prioritized the need for strong and absolute political authority.
