As long as you don't assert a "right" to homosexual activity which is intrinsically evil, I can agree with you.

People have the right to do anything which does not violate others rights.

Interesting moral statement.

1)What are the rights of others?
2)How does one determine if the rights of others have been violated?
3)Is paying for the medical expenses of another person's promiscutity a violation of my rights?
4)What is the basis for any human rights at all?

Without answers to at least 3 of the 4 questions, your statement is meaningless.

So are you in favor of anti-Jim Crow laws that the federal government forced on the states in the 1960's?

What's that dogma based on? Where do rights come from?

Where does this assertion derive from?
