Originally posted by robbie carrobieI have the feling that the Sophists were false. Because, every entity/ person needs space/time and dynamic conditions that they should enable it to survive, and survival itself is related to the control of the very environment in which the entity/ person stands; any possible condition that becomes a causing problems agent within this environment, is considered by the abv mentioned entity/ person as "enemy". We know which way the animals react: they react according to their nature and they bow not to any kind of justice as it is conceived by the Human.
i really like the idea of "natural justice", as you state it beetle, for it fits in well with my theology (no surprise there), for to be sure, if someone sees an innocent lady being struck to the ground by some dastardly person, who will not venture to help her? thus the question that the theologian of necessity must ask, is firstly why we have a se ...[text shortened]... or is perhaps desensitised to the extent that it ceases to function properly, is it not so?
But the human beings we invented the concept of justice in order to help the entities/ persons to survive/ live/ prosper within our environment (society). This pattern is common at every human society and, as a product of our culture (World 3) that it was primary designed in order to enable us to overcome specific problems over here at the World 1, it cultivates itself within our personality by means of interacting with our personal World 2. So once again, I understand "justice" merely as a product of the Human and therefore, as you remember from previous conversations of ours, Rabbie my friend, I assume as usually that the Human becomes a product of his products. This way I have in front of me a simple and economical synthesis regarding the isue of justice without contradictions, and at the same time I need not to use a metaphysic agent in order to get this theory started. In addition, over here, the "spiritual agent" as you mentioned it, it is solely my intuition during my struggle to achieve the conditions that they would enable me to survive/ live/ prosper, and at the same time enable me to establish inside me the so called "balance"; furthermore, in my opinion, from there stems the quality known as morality (but the vice-versa fails).
