Natural Rights part three

Among the natural rights we have, is the ability to worship the god or gods we please. For some this is the Judeo-Christian god. For others Allah, or Buddha, or the natural spirits. Some will reject the spiritual and worship science or the accumulation of money, or sexual prowess. But each of us has something we believe in. Your beliefs are your own, and others should have little if any say in how you worship. This is a natural right.

But there are those who wish to impose their beliefs on others. To force them to conform to a system that constrains them in ways they do not agree with. I have heard of muslims who cut off the heads of Christians, because they are Christian. I have read of Catholics who killed entire cities because they were protestant. I know of millions killed, just because they were Jews or Roma. These acts are against the natural right of man to choose how and who to worship.

It is a natural right to worship as you will. It is not a natural right to kill others in your worship.
