That would be an illustration of my own point about moral outrage and coherency. I hope that wasn't accidental.
If it was, have you heard the bad news about how slavery was legal for ages? Or even conscription?

There shall be righteous rules of law among powers over Man However many times Man must be torn down and rebuilt to this purpose. That it is easier to be a sell out or buy in is not the last word on human resolve.
- ben_w 1y agoThe "righteous" are often the least coherent. They think they don't need to explain themselves so much.
- sunscream89 1y agoMaybe you’re right about communicating. Those in the right aren’t the most vindicated by time. The churn of civilization is by every generation standing for what comes to pass. However much failure there is in that, civilization will always be the measure of how far we crawl out before failing ourselves once more. This “righteous rule”, merely a tool that there is a truth before measure by which men’s lives may be accounted must exist even if as some crude decentralized code of principle. We shall call this law and it will be right only by measure of our competence in exercising it as such. The principled approach may be crude yet effective where maintained.
