I would say that rights actually do come from the government.
Just to make things a bit clearer lets step back from the human race. What rights does a monkey or chimpanzee have? What rights does a cow or dog have? What rights does a coyote have?
We know that god didnt give us our rights because god doesnt defend our rights for us.
What rights do you have outside of a society? Say you are out in a field surrounded by 3 hungry lions. What rights do you have?
The rights we have in America are actually rules that prevent the government from infringing upon certain things. The rest is free for government meddling. Therefore, we only have rights in America to protect us from government. If there was no government, what rights would you have?
All of them.
