There can be laws even against rights. For example, the DMCA is a law in violation of the right to free speech. Of course, that means the laws are unjust, not that it is not a right.
The previous poster mentions Christians and, as a Christian even, I think the argument presented is invalid. Even a good Christian should be able to recognize that he or she does not have the right to tell another person how to live their life. Believing a person to be acting contrary to what is good is one thing; forcing that person to is entirely another.
