CONNATURAL RIGHTS
Chapter 1
What we understand by connatural rights
27. By connatural rights we understand only those whose subject (the physical faculty) is contained in human nature in such a way that it exists as soon as human nature exists. Hence, life, the various parts of the human body and natural human powers form the subject or matter of the many rights which are called connatural.
28. On the other hand acquired rights are those whose matter is not contained in the nature of each human being who is born, but acquired later through the activity or acts of acquisition of the human being.
