One does not need a god, or even a god-myth, to have a functional legal code.

Why tart up one's language to make it smugly incomprehensible, unless the underlying ideas are pure bollocks and the author wants it to be incomprehensible to hide that fatal flaw?

Godmamn, Astreja, that last was so radically beautifully written, an so right-on. Let me study it for a while, and, after I finish my Disney movie, I promise to get back to you. Thanks. Negatio

At that point you can discard that particular deity, whether or not it actually exists, and focus on the underlying issue: Individuals' desire for justice, grounded in our personal experiences of things that we ourselves deem unjust. Gods just serve a ceremonial role in the process, anyway; it's people who make the actual decisions and implement them.

Holy cow, Astreja, that is some totally right-on and righteous thinking on your part, of course, its all actually people totalizing absolutely everything. Of course, precisely, needing "Justice" via that which is deemed unjust, wow, of course, perceived lack justice, as justice is viewed in its ideality from the purely gut level of what we human beings ontologically sense interacting justly with our fellow humans is, determined by an objective/seen/perceived lack of what, in future, justice can become as strictly a function of individual humans acting justly among themselves, and not doing so via "legal" means, rather, by each persons pretty much natural, ontological feeling for justice. Law is not the mediator between persons, our basic original feeling/desire for justice is our viable path to each person reciprocally treating all others justly, without fucking "law", which "law" is, as it is now structured, an impediment to doing interpersonal justice purely on the basis of our fundamental sense of conducting one' self nobly among others. Yes, wow, Astreja, here you are enunciating the human ontological feel for righteous conduct which does not require God, or, Law, to reign... Thank you. Negatio. I live way rurally and product my electricity at the cost of eighty cents per hour, I am nearly out of fuel, it is the end of the month, money is slimming until I get my Veteran's and Social Security retirements on the 31st, so, I will have to entirely stop having the total blast of interacting with you guys, except, only very very intermittently to see responses, without being able to respond until later....Negatio.
