So is our right to keep and bear arms a natural law or a “positive law” because it is in an Amendment ‘written by men’?

Do you think rights are given by men, or is it the duty of men to base laws upon their best understanding of natural law to recognize rights given by God?

Is slavery consistent with the natural law? You apparently think natural law dictates that women be kept in a legally subservient position. I mean if men “give” them the right to vote and next thing you know they might run for Vice President!

It is positive law for sure. Do you think it is a natural law? If so, cite source. I'd like to see.

No, it's not part of natural law village liberal. It has been part of man-made laws.

I never said anything of the kind.
