r something you actually acknowledge exists.
Natural rights aren't a physical entity, hence the only proof of their existence is philosophical and logical.
they exist because every human society in history acknowledges the right to life, property and liberty - the entirety of history is DEFINED by human beings infringing upon these rights and others protecting them.
All human conflict exists because of this inherent natural sense that it is an infringement to take someone else's life, property or liberty.
The fact that some humans, due to inherent flaw of psychology or learned behavior or dire need, infringe upon these rights doesn't imply the rights don't exist - it furthers the proof in that we all recognize and react to such infringements.
all moral code and legal code can be traced back to these common core "rights".
You can argue the philosophical terms all you want, but I challenge you to deny that human beings, NATURALLY are born with a sense of these rights. Tehy are not manufactured. They are inherent and natural to us.
WhY? That's a decision for religious philosphy v. nature.
