"And by the way, I'm not Christian, I'm agnostic." Where do your rights come from, then? If they're granted to you by other men (temporal government), please explain to the rest of us how you would legitimately/logically claim that your rights are unalienable.

Oh, believe me. I would -much- rather live in a country that ascribes the source of those rights to God than to government. Noooo doubt there. I may be agnostic, but I am very much aware that I have a very vested interest in the rest of the world -not- being so.
I am quite well aware that Christianity's track record in respecting human rights is downright spectacular compared to what arises in atheistic systems (such as Communism).
