ORIGINAL: Real0ne Our rights come from God not guv. Really? And there was me thinking you came from the 'States, not Iran. Man can never be god. Can not give someone more then what god can. This means rights. HOARD GOLD. Actually, the human race has come up with loads of stuff we didn't have from God: birth control, electricity, fire, the wheel, medical research, like that. Even GOLD would be pretty worthless if we didn't have an idea of its scarcity and decorative value, and how handy it is in electronics. Rights, in particular, are a human conceit, not a divine one. I'd be very interested to hear where in the Bible the right to vote, or the right of women to be treated any better than livestock is made clear.
