> Seriously though, you think that human rights are innate enough the they are intrinsically understood by all as a universal code that needs no definition?

Yes. For the subset of bipeds that are Human, they are understood intrinsically.

Let me put it to you this way: Humans did and do not need God or a messenger to tell them that stealing is wrong, or killing is wrong, or sleeping with your neighbor's wife is wrong. And as to the subset of bipeds that are not Human, no piece of paper and no declaration is ever gonna knock sense into their base heads.
