On this point we'll have to agree to disagree. If human existence is the result of a transcendent Creator who designed the universe for the purpose of humans existing, then we have an external reason beyond our own opinion from a higher source as a reason to believe we have certain inalienable rights. I know you're going to respond with your reasons for disagreeing but I doubt we will cover any new ground.

Higher in what sense? In what way are God's judgements or intentions or whatever more important than mine, or in any way binding on me or anyone else?

What is a right?

What does it mean for a right to be inalienable?

What is the mechanism by which these moral truths and inalienable rights work? I'm assuming they're not dependent on my consent. Why?

Why do the intentions of another (God) imbue my existence with purpose or intent (mine) ? And how?
