Debate - Does religion violate human rights?

No. Religion gives you a "code of conduct". It's your choice if you choose to follow the code.

Society also gives you a code of conduct. Break those rules, you go to jail or get ostrasized. Same w/religion, break their rules & you go to hell or get ostrazied.

In both cases you do have a choice.

May I add, I've never seen a list of "Human Rights" that applies to every human on the planet. When I was born on the planet, no one at any point read my a list of my rights, so I'm not sure what you're talking about.
 
Being an inanimate object, religion, by itself, does not violate human rights any more than, say, a sofa violates human rights. But SOME religions may advance SOME beliefs which if acted upon by SOME of its adherents could result in violations of human rights. But that does not implicate all of religion. After all, SOME sofas might be sat upon by SOME people who have SOME relationship with known human rights violators. But you would not condemn all sofadom for that.
 
Yes it does. Example? Woman, inferior and unequal. Man, supreme and a god on earth. Do these people even know the history of our own species? How about the fact that even in the age of the dinosaurs, a male's genitals were outside of his body just as they are now? How about that dinosaurs laid eggs? Ok, good, they got that part. Now, after they were killed off, new mammals came that still laid eggs. Theft of eggs and the eating of these eggs containing offspring was rampant. The FEMALE evolved. The female evolved to a point where the eggs (ovaries and ovulation) were laid inside of her body and waited to be fertilized there. That way, the eggs could not be stolen and the offspring could be protected. Science has also proven that men are wired not to be able to see many details or to be able to multi task. IT's the way their brains are. Women, on the other hand, are wired to be more efficient. This only proves, in both cases, that women are the more evolved and therefore supreme of the species. But of course, men being pretty much like overgrown babies will only rant and rave out of anger equivalent to a tantrum and deny it. You can't deny what has been proven factually.
