> Justice implies retribution I don't think that's true. It's sometimes taken to include retribution; but a lot (most?) justice is about reverting the consequences of "wrong" actions - inadvertent or deliberate. So the victim of a wrong action is restored to the position they would be in if the action had not been taken. I see retribution as distinct from justice; in addition to putting things right again, "We are now going to visit on you the Universe's retribution for your moral turpitude". Bzzzt.
