    So you are here to preach rather than to philosophize?

    I don't think rights are given, I believe they are accepted individually, reinforced socially, and shaped environmentaly.

    God given rights. Do you really have any?

    We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

    When a right is given to us by governments, they assume and have a duty to ensure that they are never taken from us. If governments do not accept and do this enforcement duty, then citizens have a corrupted government.

    If a right is given to a soul, by god, he would have a duty to ensure that they are never taken from us. The fact that they often are, indicates that he is shirking his duty.

    To me, rights are like laws, completely useless and worthless unless they can be enforced by a given power when they are breached.

    Do you have any real god given rights, or are god given rights just a feel-good lie that we tell ourselves we have so as to ignore that we have none?

    Are you a Gnostic Christian or a Naturalist? You sound much more like a Naturalist than a Gnostic Christian.

    What abominations of nature?

    It is demonstrable that nature inadvertently creates for the best possible end to all life.Gnostic Christian Bishop
    Then by all means, do demonstrate so.

    It is demonstrable, biblically, to see that that good standard is not what the genocidal Yahweh uses.Gnostic Christian Bishop
    Then by all means, do demonstrate so.

    If your god is the Yahweh/Roman Jesus combo, you can do better.Gnostic Christian Bishop
    Really, according to what standard of good? and what do you suggest to constitute as better?
