My answer is 2. I go along with the original poster in that I strongly believe rights are man-made rather than natural. Nevertheless that is not to diminish their critical importance in a civilised society. Like another contributor I would go along with some of the higher numbers if "has a right to" was replaced by "should be afforded the opportunity to"
