On Universal Human Rights: The universal cannot be in conflict with its creator

The example of the Baha'i faith is one way to discredit the idea that universal human rights are in fundamental conflict with the belief in a supreme being. ...if you believe that a supreme being created the universe, then surely the universal cannot be in conflict with its creator?

The more I learn of the Baha'i ways, the more respect I have for this path. Very nice Blog.
