Issodhos, the theory of natural rights is circular logic -- they exist because when I look for them I find them. I suggest your read of human nature is too limited and fails to include the many examples of it being "natural" for there to be an overriding value to community and common ownership.

The "nature" of which you speak is primarily a philosophy born in the ancient Middle East and refined in the West. I easily understand the argument for this style of rights, I simply am unwilling to agree that it is more than a well reasoned claim that finds its ultimate validation within itself -- alone.
