If it is objectively true, then prove it.
I define rights as those inalienable privileges which all humans have by nature of their human souls. As such, the idea of rights doesn't really make sense without a God. These rights are as much universal laws of things with human souls as gravity is a universal law of things with mass.
They may not make sense to YOU without a god, but they do make sense to people who actually take responsibility for their actions and reason out what is moral rather that abdicating responsibility and saying "They told me to."
Which ironically, didn't work well at Nuremberg either.

Prove a soul exists. I'd like to see an experimental write-up with sufficient measurements and documentation so that I can repeat the process myself.
Your Aquinas copypasta was insufficient.
Souls are by definition unmeasurable. What postulate or postulates do you reject from my former proof?
Then there is zero proof they exist.
The one in which you don't destroy two or more lives.
Wrong.
Huge ass differece between "we believe on faith" and "this is repeatable and measurable by everyone who measures it and they all, by golly, come up with the same answer! If I put this US $1.00 banknote against a properly calibrated ruler, it's going to be six inches long. And it's going to be six inches long no matter who measures it, so long as their ruler is properly calibrated. A million people with accurate twelve inch rulers will ALL get the same answer of six inches, because it is measurable, and quantifiable."
Ridiculous assertions without proof, just loaded with emotion and gish galloping, is still ridiculous.
