The concept of God is not offensive- ridiculous, perhaps, as an idea anyone would use practically in govnerment, but hardly offensive. I'm not sure why you'd want to cast it that way? To elevate it in to some sort of noble crusade? So if rights are not (as Locke and Hobbes pretty much said- are Hobbes and Locke the Red Queen too?) a contract we make with each other, and then agree to enforce, where do these rights you speak of really come from- I mean in any way you can show us, without recourse to a creature of the imagination not all of us may buy off on. Have you got anything? If not, all your blather is just mindless insulting drivel, meant to obscure the fact that really, at bottom, you've nothing to offer in this "discussion".
