The Church is not sola scriptura, and is not bound entirely by the words in the bible. I don't know which bible verse talks about human rights. When I want to know what Catholicism teaches about human rights, I look at the Catechism, Magisterium, etc. I don't open up the bible and look for it there. :Okay, so far you've said the Bible is a bunch of fairy tales and shouldn't be taken literally. That's a strange position for a Christian, of any denomination, to take, but okay.
This question would much better apply to either one of the two protestants here, since they rely solely on the bible, I believe.
Maybe I missed your posts earlier in the thread, but you haven't answered my question since I asked it: WHY do you believe that God extends any particular rights to mankind in general?
