[QUOTE]Originally posted by Eclipse: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by First of Two: [qb]And when it's [the argument of self-evidence] not being used for that reason [as a pejorative], then what is it?[/qb][/QUOTE] Then, it's just a clumsy admission that you can't justify whatever it is you're asserting. All you're going on is emotional intuition. Rather than have the good grace to admit that an assumption has been made, though, one hides it in a suposedly respectable cloak. Anyway, to start discussing rights... Okay, let's just note that the concept of 'rights' (nouns) is a spring chicken. The Romans were the first to use the concept. Before that there was 'right' (the adjective, the opposite of wrong) but there were no 'rights.' [/QB][/QUOTE]
