| | - WinterI rarely do serious posts, but I've been thinking about this for a while.
As the semester progresses and I've been learning more about Con Law, I've been thinking a lot about people's approach to the law. Basically, I want to know - are you legal positivists, or legal naturalists? In other words, do you think rights are something given to you by the state, or something that you have at birth? Do you take, perhaps, a moderate position; say, believe that we have particular rights simply because we are human, but not others? And if that is your position, how did you come to the decision about which rights are ours at birth and which are not?
Discuss. You don't have to answer all the questions I posed, but I'd love to hear your thoughts.
