"So tell me, where are *your* rights derived?"
My guess would be his rights consist of exactly what the law prescribes, in which case he has no rights or
Whatever he can get away with.
Whatever he can get away with.
Anyone who prides them self on taking positions based purely on logic should be able to lay out the logic of their position on this very basic question about our form of government. Where are our rights derived?
Laws of men are only capable of taking rights. They are unable to give them.
Atheism is not a neutral position. Even someone who believes in a pixie creator will have a logical basis for their rights within our form of government. An atheist must rely on the good will of his fellow citizens. Trust me. Most of us not that nice.
Any of the other atheists around here wanna take on this challenge, I'll be around later.
