The Divine Right of Rights

Rights believers claim the divine right to rule others. They call their divine right to rule others reason, not religion, but they take a theological position just the same.

People can and do give authority they don't have. That's why the French Revolutionaries and Bolsheviks employed agents with guns. They had to force people espousing the old-time religion to obey their new and improved version.

Religion has to do with ultimacy. The anti-Sky Wizard position on ultimacy is more prone to fanaticism and violence than the pro-Sky Wizard position.
