Imo, human rights include:
- The right to be alive and unfearful of losing your life to another human.
- The right of freedom to choose how you live your life so long as it brings no harm to others.
- The right to pursue your interests so long as it brings no harm to others.
- The right to love and be loved.
- The right to marriage and being recognized by society.
- The right of freedom from slavery.
- The right of freedom to choose to procreate or adopt children or not to.
Some ideas. I've based my belief in this idea on that these "rights" are very intrinsic and free from tainting by religion or media.
EDIT: Or the state.
