Quote:Natural law and natural rights follow from the nature of man and the world. We have the right to defend ourselves and our property, because of the kind of animals we are. The true basis of law is derived from this right, not from the arbitrary power of the omnipotent state.

If we were to genetically engineer ourselves into different kinds of animals, would that give us different natural rights?

I don't think this argument has kept up with advances in biology very well.
