Do you have opinions about different laws? That some are arbitrary and unjust, whereas others are good? How do you form these opinions?
- thegrimmest 5y agoBy whether these laws enforce negative rights or positive ones. You should have a right to do whatever you want as long as you're not directly interfering with the rights of others to do the same. That's what it means to be free.
- leephillips 5y agoIs this demarcation a form of religion? Or can you demonstrate its objectivity?
- thegrimmest 5y agoThe demarcation represents a minimum set of restrictions on behavior which fundamentally differentiate civilization from its opposite - namely the presupposition of peaceful coexistence. From there, there is no means to derive the degree of compulsion to cooperate, so better not at all.
- leephillips 5y agoWhy is peaceful coexistence the supreme goal? What if my religion, in contrast with yours, holds out another goal as more important than that?
