If you can't or won't believe in the divine dignity of human beings,
then the only source for guidance in human rights is the social
evolution of the human race. Ancient society thought slavery was the
divine right of the master class. Modern capitalist society normalizes
wage slavery-which only socialism will abolish.
If you do
not believe in God, then there goes your divine authority for PRIVATE
PROPERTY right. The masses in motion can just take your CAPITAL away
from you, with no compensation and no apologies.
The Ayn Rand fanatics don't quite grasp the social significance of " IN GOD WE TRUST ".
How many " problems " arise simply because PRIVATE PROPERTY is taken for granted as an absolute right ?
