Del replies :
But how do you define your "rights" ? Isn't it the law that defines
them ? For example, in a society that tolerates slavery, it's up to
the law to define the rights of both master and slave. Even the "most
basic rights" as we now see them, such as the right to live, is not
necessarily a given in some societies.
