Well put.."Still, the main claim we may have upon one another is a function of our interaction. The claims that we have upon one another are primarily claims of ordinary decency and common courtesy. For example, we are expected to deal honestly and fairly with one another. We are expected to treat one another with a modicum of respect. These claims are reciprocal, and do not involve control of each other, but expectation of self- control......... "

I would add to your list "Good will toward others". Which implies the intent to care about the well being of others enough to act on their behalf.

BTW...Solon is beaten. He is still rolling out that feeble arguement that somebody wants to take control over him. That issue was dispelled in my original posts which he never adequately addressed.

I pointed out that humans are endowed with the ability to influence all other creatures including other human creatures. We do it whether we intend to or not. The only conscionable behavior then, is to influence other creatures including one another as we see it as a possitive influence on the well being of others. Simple fact, as I have pointed out previously and to which he has as yet not responded except to attach another meaning to my words. He admitted these additional meanings are simply his own ramblings and have nothing to do with my position as to how we do indeed have claims on one another.

Until he responds on topic, I'll leave the remaining issues to the two of you.

Have Peace,
