What's wrong with distributing rights as we see fit? Is it so much more nobler to accept rights without question? Like the bible, it doesn't believe in human rights, it condones slavery, for god's sakes. Are you going to sit around and say, well they have less value so they don't deserve these rights. That makes you kind of an asshole. Value is not needed in understanding rights. How much you're worth doesn't figure into whether you have rights.
Concepts can exist even if they cannot be true. The concept of god is a perfect example, the concept is always there, but if you really want to knock out the details you'll find that hey, this thing, it's so illogical it cannot exist. Same as the concept of utopia, the concept is almost coherent, but it's not logical.
Oh by the way, what you felt for your baby was hardwired by evolution. And you do not have an inalienable right to take care of her, if you commit some kind of crime, you'll be in prison and be denied this right. Because now her right to be safe takes over.
