And Rights.
Traditionalists who want to dog women's 'libbers' disdain 'women's rights' as something somehow anti-family when nothing could be further from the truth. They transpose this into
a general broad anathema to all rights-based legal theory, because they are so mad at women-probably their mother (for good reason.)
But the apostle Paul indicated he believed in 'rights' of a certain kind- don't we have a RIGHT to travel with our wives as does Cephas [Peter], etc... he says in Corinthians.
And the international community got together after WWII and proclaimed with the help of one rather famous 'women's libber' Eleanor Roosevelt- that there are universal RIGHTS that human dignity dictates we are all endowed with. Such RIGHTS were enshrined in the International Declaration of Human Rights- and here the Vatican Radio even pays them tribute.

So all 'rights-based' legal reasoning and theory is not intrinsically rotten or lesser. It comes from the God given natural law. Things like- we have a Right to Marriage under the Constitution because God made Adam and Eve and declared the 'help-mate' status for populating the earth.
And for fun practicing. You have a Right.
