> if you can't do what you want, you're not mighty. I have to disagree. There are many mighty and powerful people who do not want to rob, rape, vandalise, ransack, lie, pillage and kill. > If you require reality to conform to your innate sense of justice, you'll distort your perceptions of the world and react to things ineffectively. Natural Law has its merits, however, innate or otherwise that's precisely what justice is. All governance modes of societies have criminal justice systems which in addition to incarceration and rehabilitation aim to deter/prevent. Yes, that requires a fair society, but to the extent that exists people do not want or need to rob, rape, vandalise, ransack, lie, pillage and kill. They are powerful, benevolent and satisfied. The only distortion of reality I see is supposing a zero-sum world of schadenfreude and jealousy in which only relative power counts and you can't feel good about your power unless it comes at someone else's expense.
