Basically I'm asking, do people have any expectation of how they should be treated here on earth? Where does this expectation come from? Is there a right and a wrong. Who decides which is which?

Are Your Rights GIVEN to you by your government? OR Are Rights inalienable? GIVEN to you by God?

Is it not so that with one you owe the very air you breathe to whim and the good grace of the government? That the government is the ultimate authority?

Is it also not so that with God given rights your government has to at least try not to violate your rights?
