Where Do Human Rights Come From?

from Encountering Truth · host Bill Westers

Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness - are they really unalienable rights? If so, why? Can we just "declare" our rights, or do they actually have to be grounded in something? In this episode, we look at the idea of human rights, where they come from, and why it matters.===============Resources:===============Books: ⁠The Rise and Triumph of the Modern Self: Cultural Amnesia, Expressive Individualism, and the Road to Sexual Revolution by Carl R.
