Whether we are talking about God-given rights or humanity to humanity-given rights, as explained, the codified results should be the same. So, whether you are an atheist, agnostic, deist, or any form of religionist, you ought to be content with the superlative justness of the cause, that all human beings are equal in their rights to equity under the law, life, liberty, property, etc. This is completely fair. The problem is that “fair” really does not matter very much to most people. There are many people who are so selfish, arrogant, and corrupt, that this kind of fairness and equality is of very little concern to them.
There are a surprising number of people who have no qualms about using force and coercion, even deadly force and overtly evil coercion, to assert their superiority, establish statist rule, and force their ideologies on the rest of humanity, whatever the costs. They rationalize that the end justifies the means. These people have no conscience or conscientious awareness of the immutable rights of mankind. All they really care about is asserting their brand of morality, their ideology, their theology, and their rules, in order for them to get whatever it is that they want.
Even among religionists, there are many zealots who do not believe in universal equity under the law. For many, it is an us versus them mentality. For many, those with other religious beliefs are considered common, unclean, unworthy, and undeserving of any civilized consideration. They are infidels; they are gentiles; they are Jews; they are heathens; they are religious fanatics; they are racists; you name it—they don’t matter. There are countless ways to label or brand others in ways calculated to deny them their fundamental rights or civilized treatment.
This being the case, how is a society ever to establish an equitable government with proper protections for the fundamental rights of the people? The only solution is for the people to be somehow sifted, divided, and then gathered into ideological groups of like-minded people. And then, as harsh as it may seem, they must separate from those who will not concede to the basic ideology of fundamental rights. This must be done as a matter of safety and legal expediency in order to establish the protection of these fundamental rights, otherwise, these protections will never fully exist.
This is why we have jails and prisons. Those who break the law, and violate the fundamental rights of others, need to be separated from society in order to maintain a civilized and safe society.
This is why we need to have separate countries, states, and municipalities, with borders and boundaries between people of conflicting cultures and values. Birds of a feather should flock together. Groups and cultures with differing beliefs and values should form separate governments according to their beliefs and values, especially when they cannot be harmonized in recognizing fundamental rights and the proper role of government.
In pluralistic global societies, separate governments need to exist where groups of people with compatible beliefs and values can peacefully coexist. The only alternative is the incorporation of heavy-handed despotic governments.
This is why globalists and statists want to dissolve borders and boundaries and mix everyone up, so they can create conflict and then impose statist controls, enslaving the people under globalist-statist rule.
Those who are not in favor of the equitable establishment and protection of fundamental rights should be free to gather and combine and create their own government(s) that function according to their less equitable ideas. In this way, everyone gets what they want, except that the would-be statists would not get to lord it over those who disagree with or object to their ideas and abuses.
Ultimately, there are only two political ideologies: the first is the ideology that the rule of law must be upheld, that equitable fundamental rights must be respected by everyone, that virtue and goodness matter, and that truth must ultimately prevail; the second is that might makes right, that virtue is irrelevant, and that despotism and statism is the only way to bring order out of chaos. It is the rule of law or violent anarchy. Order or chaos. Function or disfunction. Creation or destruction.
