Absolutely false on the face of it.
Our rights clearly come from a social compact. If they came from a god or gods, there would be universal agreement on what those rights are, and they would remain static. Instead, we see disagreement about what rights exist, and who they apply to. They also change over time. Governments regularly violate these rights. God given rights would command more respect, and possibly violations would entail some form of heavenly punishment.
