Which assessment best fits the Declaration?
- The religious distinction conflicts with its universal entitlement without such discrimination
- Majority preference automatically changes the Declaration
- Only property owners hold UDHR rights
- A public announcement eliminates equality
- Religion is outside the Declaration's nondiscrimination grounds
