The historical Jesus would champion these modern concepts if he were around today:
"Civil rights include the ensuring of peoples' physical and mental integrity, life, and safety; protection from discrimination on grounds such as sex, race, sexual orientation, national origin, color, age, political affiliation, ethnicity, social class, religion, and disability;[1][2][3] and individual rights such as privacy and the freedom of thought, speech, secularity (freedom from religion), sex characteristics, genderlessness, gender identity, freedom of religion, press, assembly, and movement.
Political rights include natural justice (procedural fairness) in law, such as the rights of the accused, including the right to a fair trial; due process; the right to seek redress or a legal remedy; and rights of participation in civil society and politics such as freedom of association, the right to assemble, the right to petition, the right of self-defense, and the right to vote, people choosing to be childfree or parents, people choosing to be single or in a committed relationship (unmarried or married), people choosing to be pet-owners or pet-free and diverse family living arrangements.
