A person has to be a theist in order to believe in human rights and democracy as practiced in the United States. Atheists have a real hard time coming up with a convincing argument for human rights.

Bull.
Our constitution is a non-theistic document that has a convincing argument on how we can believe in human rights and the principles of a free republic as practiced in the United States.

i am a taoist, not believing in god, and i have an abundance of nature to guide my life - compassion, careing, respect, honor, supportiveness, sharing, and cooperativeness are all lessions that i learn through observation every day - most god fearing people i know could vastly improve on their lives and interaction with others if they learned their lessons from nature as opposed as the religeous mythology that guides their lives
