Which of these statements is most likely to be made by a proponent of natural law and natural rights? a-god grants monarchs the authority to rule and the duty to give people their rights. b-people are irrational, so science is useless in figuring out human behavior. c-history teaches that individual freedom is an impossible goal. d-government does not grant rights; it protects them.

D. Government does not grant rights; it protects them.

Explanation:

This is the statement that would most likely be supported by someone who believes in natural law and natural rights. A person who supports these ideas believes that humans are born with certain inalienable rights (for example, the right to life, the right to liberty, the right of ownership or the right to the pursuit of happiness). These rights are to be respected simply because of a person's humanity, and not because any government grants them. Therefore, the role of the government in these cases is not to grant rights, but to protect rights that already exist.
