Steven, it's unfortunate you had to add that last sentence to an otherwise interesting post. I would have enjoyed continuing our conversation in a climate of open dialogue. However, it appears the ones aligning themselves against "natural laws" cannot escape the personal attack mindset and allow the issue to be explored to a greater level. It's also unfortunate, that your "ladders of inference" lead you so quickly from natural law into the fear of religios dogma and forcing ones ideas on another. So I'll leave and let you guys have a good time (probably at my expense) with these thoughts... Our minds cannot function optimally unless we are emotionally balanced. Emotion rather than intellect plays the primary role in decision making. As Gandhi put it. "Untimately one is guided not by the intellect, but by the heart." The heart accepts a conclusion for which the intellect subsequently finds reasoning. "Man often finds reason, Gandhi said, in support of whatever he does or wants to do". Even more important than knowledge is the life of emotion. Natural laws link are emotions to our intellect by guiding us with an inner voice. If we have keen ears we can hear the timeless vibrations of truth in our minds. There is a reason humans possess this inner voice. What it means is still a mystery to me. But that it exists in all cultures involving human beings I am fairly certain. So I call this voice our "natural laws" or principles. And recognize the way in which they effect how we view the human traits of honesty, integrity, courage trust, and trustworthiness. These traits have been admired in people from cultures the world over for thousands of years. And I have little doubt, will be admired for thousands of years to come. Michael
