Yes, human rights are meaningless in a secular worldview. Because it always boils down to "my right to speech/life/etc is intrinsic", because they can't say sacred. But what if I don't agree with your assessment of what's intrinsic to human "dignity". And what happens when I have the power to take away your so-called rights? Why shouldn't I? Because you said I'd be evil? Because you deep-down believe they're sacred? Solely because you asserted that I can't? LMAO watch me
If however, you believe their is a higher power, then your appeal to intrinsic rights is logically sound. Because then the violator of your rights will get his in the end. And their punishment will be far worse than anything they could ever deal to you on earth
Rights have to be based on morality, and humans don't know what morality is. We only see glimpses of it that we get from God. That's why we get ridiculous things like the UN announcing that Broadband is a basic human right.
If it doesn't come from God, then where does it come from? What makes it valid? I think the founders of America had a better understanding of God than most people do today. At least they were talking about the right things.
And you are right, these evil people will be judged in the end, and not by me.
