"It's called grounding not qualifying and what's shocking, is that you ARE willing to make ungrounded philosophical truth claims."

It's your perspective my claims are ungrounded, as it is my view that your rules for grounding are illusory. Apparently Christianity gives you a sense of 'grounding' that gives you comfort in some way to proclaim the things you do.

"Again you decline to state your position and therefore we have no way of evaluating the grounds of your position."

My position on rights has been declared and explained and elaborated upon.

"Now I'm beginning to wonder why? "

I told you before I am not a club joiner. That seems to have gone over your head.

"Are you ashamed to state your position, ..."

I still don't have a clear picture of what you mean by position but it seems like you mean a particular authoritative world view or discipline of thought. I don't believe in forced choices and I don't know how to help someone like you understand that. I'm not ashamed of it and am quite willing to explore it as a topic if you think that would help. You are obviously convinced it has to be this or that or some alternative to this or that, as you've mentioned previously, leading you to conclude that I must be hiding something.

"..or do you just like to have your cake and eat it too? "

I've never liked cake, even as a kid at parties I'd pass it up for an extra scoop of ice cream.
