CNN Anchor: ‘Our Rights Do Not Come From God’

[shagster01]

No. One prioritizes. This is the "Gray" area.

Well a gray area is hardly absolute.

 

[shagster01]

Not exactly, unless you mean a general consensus of those empowered to make the rules.

Even so, that would be man made, which is my point.

I don't believe in "rights". Nobody has a right to anything.

So then I can empty your wallet and you have nothing to say? :up: I will be right over to collect your debit cards and PIN for them. Hand it over, it is mine, you have no rights.

Dragging men to their death behind a truck is not about rights,

And some people still cling to the idea that marijuana smoking doesn't make you stupid.

Is it right to kill an innocent man if your own child's life depends on it

False dilemma. And a typical idiot liberal cliché.

As for crummy news anchors, here is a good one. And he is not welcome at CNN.

And congratulations to poster Christian Liberty. You are officially now just the second biggest idiot here. The shagster has you covered by miles.

Wait, I say you have no rights and somehow you take that to mean you have a right to my money?

Anyway, you can try to empty my wallet and see what happens.

You are the biggest idiot poster here.

False dilemma. And a typical idiot liberal cliché.

How so? We see it many times with doctors. Do you abort the baby or let the mom die? Either is morally wrong without the other happening. Just letting a mom die, wrong. Just aborting, wrong. But when one or the other must be done it becomes not wrong anymore, making, "letting a mother die when she could be saved," not so wrong anymore.

The fact of the matter is, the United States Constitution says NOTHING about Christianity or God.

It's amazing how certain evidence and facts--in the government or in the Bible--fail to register to conservatives and fundamentalists at all.

The fact of the matter is, the United States Constitution says NOTHING about Christianity or God...

We were founded as a Judeo-Christian nation. :dizzy:

[Christian Liberty]

I think he is correct in a sense. The world is absent any sort of rights for anyone. The only "rights" we have are the ones we collectively agree to let ourselves have.

This is why secularism can never support a consistent ideology of freedom.

The CNN Anchor is absolutely wrong.

The CNN Anchor is absolutely wrong.

Religion does no better as they can't agree on what rights God supposedly gave us.

Perhaps so.

But again, the U.S. Constitution does not say this or mandate it.

It is also instructive and eye-opening to research the Founders' private letters to friends. They tend to be more honest about their beliefs. All politicians learn to tell untruths with a straight face.

No. We were founded by, mostly, Christians as a secular state that protected the right of men to exercise their faith and to prevent the state from wedding itself to any particular expression, our forefathers having experienced the horror that tended to unleash (see: the 30 Years War).
