    It is interesting to note the philosophical shift in both the US and Canada to define law and ethics as government-defined rather than things set forth by natural law.

      Government a legal fiction that dosent exist in reality but only on paper .
      To contract with you they use your legal fiction, the all caps name.
      Natural law is the law of our Creator.
      Acts and statutes make money for the parasites.

      That’s a great point! I think for the US, it’s due in large part to this idea and use of the 1st Amendment being a catch all (loophole) for things not explicitly written into law. So people don’t have to feel a way about using racist language if it’s protected speech. In their minds they can still be “Christian”, with high morals. Many more examples, but that’s one of the easiest to point to bc of how often it gets used.

      The technical terms for this phenomenon is the shift from natural legalism to positive legalism, which basically means "make it up."

    “Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment and the second is like unto it, thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.”

    I love the Golden Rule but in my personal experience this way of behaving can fail to give you proper understanding in certain situations and may cause unintentional damage to personal relationships. Basically, the problem I ran into was a result of the fact that I don't care if people make fun of me or insult me. I'm very confident and I like to poke fun at myself and my friends. The problem is some people are very sensitive and self conscious so if I treat people with these characters the same as I treat myself, they may get offended or angry at me. So I've modified the golden rule to accommodate my persona. What this means is: I treat people as *they* want to be treated. This lifestyle has served me well.

      It's more about what a "reasonable person" would do. You can think of a jury as representing that. Proving you act as a reasonable person would, then it is the other person's problem if they are upset by it.

    treating others as one would want for themselves. is a wide array, because the majority of people dont even treat themselves good, so how would we expect them to treat others in a good way rather how they like to be treated.

    The specific rules of natural law seem to depend on the group of people.
    Every community and belief system in any region of the world have their own ideas of what is right and wrong.
    Therefore, there is no such thing as universal natural law. It seems that everybody has their own ideas of what falls into right and wrong.
    We should use better terms.
    But I do agree that fundamental human rights and basic human moral codes are the foundation and primary authority before any government or law

    From what I've heard, natural law is about generating the reality you want, whether it's moral or not

    This presupposes that reason is right. That is not always the case. Seven jurists passed Roe v Wade and 50 million children died. John Locke thought that we can know what is right as certain as a mathematical finding. But what if we are able to reason our way around what is right so that 2 plus 2 is 5?? Reason needs divine input it needs light, John 3:19, Isaiah 5:20-21. Scripture teaches that we are not just mind but heart also, see Jeremiah 17:9.

    Interesting, agree and disagree. A question does natural law define to what we are or how we are inclined to doing evil? Where deeds is and are to a being and world or in a matter of where i have and in all honesty been true and rude due to reasons of over bearing and over boundary by many- maternal world and perspective rights of every bit of every thing as with birth right( which i consider as eternal- if life be and to live and out live not just matter of birth) in and by Gods grace that is . Scenario is such that of what is ascending and what is above is to be above the clouds- heaven or where prayers be lifted or the whole idea of the body? Good and Evil be - what is within- should a world be and with intent by few if not many broken- to consider the world and what is instilled as with the whole many that gas light- a child from age 1 - 10 they say the very important time and age for the brain to understand develop grow and be in all of what build a child and crush a child and what is destroyed would be of bad but it is done other wise - by actors- & Asia- in that Assassination creed. How does this apply court of law- justice and where supreme be and in al conduct today that supremacy be in all acts and others and what is within a persons body and being to crush - by some to note the whole SWOT or within, and hence some say the Athens way of ruling- eating one's own? Not certain the understanding may differ of what is instill to state by as when the words of the Lords far better than any you may come from a background but if God were to alter in way of or during but to alter something after birth - body would relate- more than just catastrophe- so how can natural law be applied if every bold many are brave to erase or even evict all truth from being. 17122024- Tuesday- 838am

    I wish that all humans had reason and free will. I would argue that most people are irrational pawns who do and think what they are told. 12 years of indoctrination have crippled their free will much like breaking a horse.

      @AJPuk 2 роки тому +1

      @NowAndrew ha yeah pretty much. it's about as succinct as it can be explained to most. the built-in paradigms of our 'reality' are too incapacitating.. i wonder why there is such a narrow capacity of comprehension of this realm and its universality. perhaps it's more efficient not to disable the inter-generational perception management of most of mankind's awareness to certain information - classified or otherwise. topics that are deemed 'sensitive'...? sensitive to the vibratory response there'd be if the trust and the genuine facts hidden by an inverted energy, engulfing and captivated in a sea of misinformation via centralisation..
      it is fact that we are a part of nature and are multi-dimensional beings who've been disabled by an invisible force as it were - felt not seen, like a swear word in the mind. now, the opposite is normified and aren't encouraged to be within nature as much as we are encouraged to stay indoors, disconnect and consume positive ions in a plethora of assaults on our life force. but... why so sinister? it's the same energetic compounding operating within like a virus of our crystal brain. It's mirroring our genuine nature and inverting it for means of obfuscating anything that would open up and expand our beings global collective consciousness and in acknowledgement collapse the ancient trust of secrets.

    secular versus God; ALL Western Civilizations hang on the basis of Old Testament foundations clearly given in Genesis, Deuteronomy, Exodus, Psalms and Proverbs, among others. USA law is directly linked to the above and English Common Law, Roman, Greek and Jewish fundamental concepts of life, Patriarchy, Nuclear family, to right to own and use property and the right to freely exchange time for money (the basis of all contract law).

      @@someonenotnoone similar to the AMERICAN politicians bought and paid for by corporate and foreign interests; might wanna update your view of what is going on... Considering that 400,000 WHITE MEN died to free the slaves in the American Civil War you definitely need to alter your view of the American Experience. ONLY DEMOCRATS advanced slavery in the USA #truth #history ONLY REPUBLICANS voted to free the slaves in the South, which was advanced only by the CHRISTIAN religion of the North.
