    Because nature isn't guided by a moral code, doesn't mean we shouldn't be. Our (natural) instinct is to form society, and in order to preserve society, we develop and promote a shared moral code. That makes morality an aspect of human nature, which is an aspect of wider nature. Nothing wrong with that... Oh sorry... Nothing INCORRECT with that.

    I think I am entitled to certain moral rights because I was born and participate in a society which is founded upon moral rights and the preservation of said rights is necessary for the continuation of said society.

      Humans (Homo sapiens sapiens) are not the only creatures [extant to Planet Earth] that form societies.

      The other creatures which do normally form societies, in fact, do follow 'ethical' behaviour patterns, although these are sometimes purely or partly instinctive (especially among creatures which are not Sentient or not Sentient and Ethical).

      'Morals' are peculiar to humans, 'ethics' are not.

      Which 'rights' do you feel 'entitled' to?

      Why do you stubbornly cling on to Archaic ideologies, and hence contribute to the stagnation of the development of civilisation and of advanced society?
