The very moment it changes..I will be growing copious amounts of weed. Law is not completely efficacious when it comes to human determination, granted..but it's not entirely without efficacy, either. You've built your argument around a general rule that doesn't hold.
Quote:"...you might even have misattributed the incompetence central to your argument..."I'm suggesting that the inability of some people to moderate their actions in accordance with law might demonstrate their incompetence, but it doesn't necessarily demonstrate incompetence on the part of law, or those who set it.
You write excellently, however, at first glance your statements are not immediately apprehensible, I think that by ''misattributed'' you mean that I am mistaken in saying Christ is mistaken !
(human or divine).
In plain language, and playing the part of an apologist;
"Didn't god know that law was an imperfect tool? That it would predictably fail a great portion of humanity - those for whom law does not drive their determination? Isn't this base incompetence?"
-Man's base incompetence. None are righteous, not even one. Yes, god did know that.
