And as for legalized murder, well, the Texas GOP seems to want precisely that, at least if it's the murder of a homosexual

Go whine to the 40,000,000 children who haven't had a chance to choose their "orientation" since Roe v Wade.

Just because it is 'legal' does not make it right, or a Right.

But as an atheist, where do you get your unalienable (God given) rights?

Well, first, inalienable means "cannot be transferred to another or others", not "God-given."

I prefer not to require some supernatural entity for my rights, thank you. The "divine right of kings" was also God-given, if I read the word "divine" properly.

My viewpoint on the subject is reflected quite well here: http://atheists.home.att.net/massimo/200010.htm
