jeez krimel, what is happening? i am like totally agreeing with you. nice one man.
law vs lore....the aborigines can shed a lot of light on this one. you know, the etymologies must be related i reckon - law must have evolved from lore - the static vine strangling the ineffable dynamic source again. [Krimel] I think part of the problem here is that we no longer seem capable of distinguishing between what is legal and what is moral. It calls to mind one of my favorite passages from the Tao te Ching. This is not an especially good translation but if conveys the idea: "Thus it was that when the Tao was lost, Its attributes appeared; when its attributes were lost, Benevolence appeared; when benevolence was lost, The proprieties appeared. Now propriety is the attenuated form of good-heartedness and good faith. It is also the commencement of disorder; Swift apprehension is (only) a flower of the Tao, And is the beginning of stupidity." Jesus talked about it in terms of the written law as opposed to the law written in the heart.
