That's an awkward way to put it. But yes, I suppose I refuse to acknowledge situations where one person would have a superior right to another person's life.
What if someone else does not accept some or all of those rights you outline? Are they free to ignore those they do not agree with?
There is not "what if" here. There are many people (including you) who refuse to recognize natural rights. The results are we live under a government that gets increasingly oppressive on people and property to sustain what collectivists (like yourself) see as the greater good.
Yes, they are free to ignore natural rights. It still doesn't mean that I have a superior right to your life or your property.

What is the other set of absolutes? The Constitution? Even you talk about how the Constitution (and its interpretation) changes all the time. How is that an absolute??
